Answer:

chicken cost 8 and ducks 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Let c=cost of chicken and d=cost of duck; 50c+30d=550 and 44c+36d=532.
So 5c+3d=55, 11c+9d=133.
Therefore 15c+9d=165, subtracting 11c+9d=133 we get: 4c=32 so c=8.
5c+3d=40+3d=55, so 3d=15 and d=5.
Cost of chicken is $8 and cost of duck is $5.
