Toucans and blue-and-yellow macaws are both tropical birds. the length of the toucan in the picture to the right is about two thirds of the length of the blue-and-yellow macaw. the toucan is about 28 in long. what is the length of the blue-and-yellow macaw?

The length of the blue-and-yellow macaw is 42 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the length of the toucan in inches

y ----> the length of the blue-and-yellow macaw in inches

we know that

----> equation A

----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y

Multiply by 3 both sides to remove the fraction

Divide by 2 both sides

therefore

The length of the blue-and-yellow macaw is 42 in

square root of 36/6 = 2.449489743

square root of 16/6 = 1.632993162

square root of 6 = 2.449489743

the answer is square root of 16/6 because the square root of 36/6 is the same answer as square root of 6 = 2.449489743
