Answer: Either A or B

Step-by-step explanation:

Both A and B are the same answers, but the main answer should be

c+d=17, 4c+2d =54

C represents the number of cows and D represents the number ducks. The two and fours in front of the variables represents the number of legs the repesctive animal has.

c+d would mean how many animals are in the barn. Feel free to clarify the two same answers

Jill makes purses and backpacks. To make each purse,she uses 1foot less than half the amount of fabric she uses to make a backpa
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Jill makes purses and backpacks.

Let x represent the number of foot of fabric required to make a purse.

Let y represent the number of foot of fabric required to make a backpack.

To make each purse,she uses 1 foot less than half the amount of fabric she uses to make a backpack. This means that

x = (y/2) - 1

Therefore, the amount of fabric that Jill needs to make backpack will be

y/2 = x-1

y = 2(x-1) = 2x - 2

The number of feet of fabric that she will use to make a purse is

x = (y/2) - 1

The Naturally Made Bath and Body store pays $550 a month for rent and utilities. The average cost for its products to be manufac
skelet666 [1.2K]
To determine the equation to represent this situation, we can use 2.5x to show the amount of profit per product, and a y intercept value of -550 to show the cost for rent. Now, we have the equation y=2.5x-550.

The break even point is when the profits balance out the expenses, so in this case, y should equal 0.

0=2.5x-550

Add 550 to both sides...

550=2.5x

Divide both sides by 2.5...

x=220

So, our answer is 220 products.
