Answer:

cost of a chicken $7.25

cost of a duck $4.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c represent chickens and d represent ducks

50 chicken + 3 ducks = $550 ➡ 50c + 30d = $550

44 chicken + 36 ducks = $532 ➡ 44c + 36d = $532

Now find the difference of equations

(50c + 30d) - (44c + 36d) = $550 - $532

6c - 6d = $18

6×(c-d) = $18 divide both sides by 6

c - d = $3 Now we can use this information to find the cost of a chicken and duck

50c + 30d = $550

c - d = $3 multiply second equation by 30

30 × (c-d) = $3 ➡30c - 30d = $30

Now add this new equation we found to the very first equation

30c - 30d + 50c + 30d = $550 + $30 (-30d will eliminate 30d)

80c = $580 divide both sides of the equation by 80

c = $7.25 

We know that c - d = 3 so now replace c by $7.25 the price we just found

$7.25 - d = $3

$7.25 - $3 = d

$4.25 = d

Find the quotient of n(x) = 6x^5y^7 and m(x) = 2x^3y

likoan [24]

Answer:

a. Yes

b. Yes

c. Yes

d. Degree 8

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Yes, n(x) is a polynomial of one single term (also called monomial) because it contains variables raised to positive integers.

b. Yes, m(x) is a polynomial of also one single term (also called monomial) because it contains variables raised to positive integers.

c. The quotient of n(x) / m(x) can be reduced to a polynomial of one single term as follows:

$\frac{n(x)}{m(x)} =\frac{6\,x^5\,y^7}{2\,x^3\,y} =3\,x^2\,y^6$

which as can be seen, also contains variables raised to positive integers.

d. The degree of the polynomial resultant is the addition of the powers of all variables present (x and y) which results in: 2 + 6 = 8

Therefore the degree of this polynomial is 8.

How can numbers be expressed, ordered, and compared

fiasKO [112]

Compare or order the digits that are different, Write > or <. or use a number line 44 < 72
Say:
"44 is less than 72" Or you can look at the place value. You can express using an exponent, an octet and many more
