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:

? = 13.6

Step-by-step explanation:

the angle between a tangent and the diameter = 90°

Then the triangle is right with legs 2 × 6 = 12 and 6.4

using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.

the square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the legs , that is

? ² = 12² + 6.4² = 144 + 40.96 = 184.96 ( take square root of both sides )

? = \sqrt{184.96} = 13.6

Simplify (3x+8)(x+1) using a table, the Distributive Property, and the FOIL
Diano4ka-milaya [45]
Foil method:
FOIL stands for
first-multiply the first term in each set of parenthesis
outer-multiply the outer term in each of the perenthesis
inner- multiply the inner term in each of the parenthesis
last- multiply the last term in each of the parenthesis
(3x+8)(x+1)
(3x*x)=3x^2
(3x*1)=3x
8*x=8x
8*1=8
thus we shall have:
3x^2+3x+8x+8
=3x^2+11x+8

Distributive property:

(3x+8)(x+1)
3x(x+1)+8(x+1)
3x^2+3x+8x+8
=3x^2+11x+8

Both methods are efficient, it all depends with the users preference
