Answer: chicken $8, duck $5
Explanation:
x - the cost of a chicken
y - the cost of a duck
he sold 50 chickens and 30 ducks for $550: 50x + 30y = 550
he sold 44 chickens and 36 ducks for $532: 44x + 36y = 532
50x + 30y = 550 divide by 10
44x + 36y = 550 divide by 4
______________
50x/10 + 30y/10 = 550/10
44x/4 + 36y/4 = 532/4
______________
5x + 3y = 55
Multiply by (-3)
11x + 9y = 133
______________
5x * (-3) + 3y * (-3) = 55 * (-3)
11x + 9y = 133
______________
-15x - 9y = -165
11x + 9y = 133
______________
Sum up:
-4x + 0y = -32
-4x = -32
x = -32/-4
x = 8
Since 5x + 3y = 55 and x = 8, then:
5 * 8 + 3y = 55
40 + 3y = 55
3y = 55 - 40
3y = 15
y = 15/3
y = 5
Answer:

Hey there!!
Okay so here are the steps....
(5 + 2i) + (8 - 3i) <---- when we have exponents we should worry about the "i" because it is equal to √-1 but here it isn't the case.
<u>
(13 - i)</u><u /> <----- This is the answer!
<u />I hope this helps! ^__^
3(2x-4)=2(x+4)
6x-12=2x+8
6x-2x=8+12
4x=20
x=20/4
x=5
