Q:
There are several peacocks and deers in a cage (with no other types of animals). There are 72 heads and 200 feet inside the cage. How many peacocks are there, and how many deers ?
Answer & Explanation
Answer: D) 44 & 28
Explanation: Let
x = peacocks
y = deers
2x + 4y = 200
x + y = 72
y = 72 - x
2x + 288 - 4x = 200
x = 44 peacocks
y = 28 deers
