Ancient Chinese Math Problem. Several ancient Chinese books included problems that can be solved by translating to systems of equations. Arithmetical Rules in Nine Sections is a book of 246 problems compiled by a Chinese mathematician, Chang Tsang, who died in 152 b.c. One of the problems is: Suppose there are a number of rabbits and pheasants confined in a cage. In all, there are 35 heads and 94 feet. How many rabbits and how many pheasants are there? Solve the problem. [13.4a]
