Use algebra Set up a system of equations.
Let x = number of pounds of chicken he sold 
and y = number of pounds of pork 
So one equation is 
x + y = 15....... (1)
And the other equation is the amount of money he made :-
3x + 4y = 50....(2)

Now solve this sytem of 2 equations:-

multiply the eqaution (1) by -3:-

-3x - 3y = -45 .......(3)
3x  + 4y = 50 ........(2)   Now add (3) and (2);-

y = 5      so he sold 5 pounds of pork 

and substituting in equation (1)

x + 5 = 15 
x = 10 

So he sold 5 pounds of pork and 10 pounsd of chicken.

C=10 & P=5
3C+4P=50
C+P=15
Solve
3C+4P=50
3C+3P=45
Subtract
P=5
Substitute in equation 2
C+P=15
C+5=15
C=10

Answer:

1 ) 180 - 71 = 109

2) 5x +x = 180 ;  6x = 180 ; x = 180/6 = 30

3) 90

4) x + 6x+8 + x+12 =  180 ;  8x + 20 = 180 ;  8x = 160/8= 30

5)  180 -110 = 70

6) m = 180- 119 = 61

7) 90

8) 11y - 36 = 63 ;  y = 99/11 = 9

~~~~~~~~Next page~~~~~~~~~~

(Q7) 180

(Q8) 2x+x = 3x = 90 ;  x = 90/3 = 30

(Q15) 157

(Q16) 5x + 4 + (x-2) + (3x+7) = 180

       9x +9 = 180 ;   x = 171 / 9 = 19

I hope im right!!

Conditional probabilities are based on some event occurring given that something else has already occurred?
alex41 [277]

The answer is true. A conditional probability is a measure of the probability of an event given that (by assumption, presumption, assertion or evidence) another event has occurred. If the event of interest is A and the event B is known or assumed to have occurred, "the conditional probability of A given B", or "the probability of A in the condition B", is usually written as P (A|B). The conditional probability of A given B is well-defined as the quotient of the probability of the joint of events A and B, and the probability of B.

I need to fine the height of a triangular pyramid and I already have the volume and Area
Keith_Richards [23]
I’m not sure, but i think that you have to take the volume equation, and plug in the other variables (volume, area) to find the height

Evaluate the expression for the given value of the variable. <br> 29 + 5/6r <br> r = -1/2<br> find r
Dmitrij [34]

Hey there!

The solution to your question is

We simply plug the "r" value into the equation and solve:

29 + (5/6)(-1/2)

29 + -5/12

28 7/12

Hope it helps! Have an amazing day, and remember, You've got this!
