Answer: the cost of one chicken is $8
The cost of one duck is $5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the cost of one chicken.
Let y represent the cost of one duck.
Last month, he sold 50 chickens and 30 ducks for $550. It means that
50x + 30y = 550- - - - - - - - - - - 1
This month, he sold 44 chickens and 36 ducks for $532. It means that
44x + 36y = 532- - - - - - - - - - - 2
Multiplying equation 1 by 44 and equation 2 by 50, it becomes
2200x + 1320y = 24200
2200x + 1800y = 26600
Subtracting, it becomes
- 480y = - 2400
y = - 2400/- 480
y = 5
Substituting y = 5 Intl equation 1, it becomes
50x + 30 × 5 = 550
50x + 150 = 550
50x = 550 - 150
50x = 400
x = 400/50
x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:
The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other , then
CO = OA = b
DO = OB = a
(a)
CA = CO + OA = b + b = 2b
(b)
DC = DO + OC = a - b
(c)
CB = CO + OB = b + a = a + b
Answer:
44
Step-by-step explanation:
use the order of operations
5 (3) 2 + 3 + 11. solve within parenthesis
15 × 2 + 3 + 11. multiply left to right
30 + 3 + 11. multiply left to right
33 + 11. add left to right
44. add
the order of operations is more commonly known as PEMDAS.
(parenthesis, exponents, multiply and divide, add and subtract)
If you are still confused there is a Brain Pop about PEMDAS. just search "order of operations" on the brain pop website
7
5 times 7
equals 35
then you add 15
and get 50
