Answer:

option (c) 9 mg

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided:

Amount of copper that must be contained in the feed = 4 mg per kilogram

Amount of dry matter being consumed by the pig = 5 pounds

Now,

1 pound = 0.45 kilograms

thus,

5 pounds = 0.45 × 5 = 2.25 kilograms

thus,

amount of dry matter being consumed by the pig = 2.25 kg

therefore,

the amount of copper consumed = 4 mg per kilogram × 2.25 kg

or

the amount of copper consumed = 9 mg

Hence,

the correct answer is option (c) 9 mg

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

x-2x = -3 and x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

y=x+5.... 1

y-2x=2.... 2

Substituting the first equation into the second we will have;

From 2;

y -2x = 2

x+5-2x = 2

x-2x +5 = 2

x-2x = 2-5

x-2x = -3

-x =-3

x =3
