Hello!

You can make two equations based on what you know

x + y = 50
5x + 3y = 190

Subtract y from both sides of the first equation

x = 50 - y

Put x into the second equation

5(50 - y) + 3y = 190

Distribute the 5

250 - 5y + 3y = 190

Combine like terms

250 - 2y = 190

Subtract 250 from both sides

-2y = -60

Divide both sides by -2

y = 30

Put y into the first equation

x + 30 = 50

Subtract 30 from both sides

x = 20

She bought 20 seed corn bags and 30 bags of dog food

Hope this helps!

Answer:

30 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

Nc + Nd = 50

5Nc + 3Nd = 190

Multiply by -5 becomes:

-5Nc - 5Nd = -250

5Nc + 3Nd = 190

Equals:

-2Nd= -60

simplify:

-2Nd/-2 and -60/-2 = Nd= 30 bags

a2= 5-2= 3
a3= 2-(-1)= 3
a4= -1 - (-4)= 3
a5= -4 - (-7)= 3
a6= -7 - (-10)= 3
a7= -10 - (-13)= 3

Answer: y = x^2 + 6x+ 9 = 0. (X+3)^2= 0 when x=3. This has one root.

X^2-2x -24 = 0 a= 1 b=-1 and c= -24 x = {-(-1) +/- sqrt((-1)^2 -4 x 1 x (-24)}/2

X = [1 +/- sqrt(97)]/2
