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

Find all the zeros of the equation<br> -3x^4 + 27x^2 + 1200 = 0
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

\displaystyle x=-5,\ x=5,\ x=4i,\ x=-4i

Step-by-step explanation:

Biquadratic Equation

It's a fourth-degree equation where the terms of degree 1 and 3 are missing. It can be solved for the variable squared as if it was a second-degree equation, and then take the square root of the results

Our equation is

\displaystyle -3x^4+27x^2+1200=0

If we call y=x^2, our equation becomes a second-degree equation

\displaystyle -3y^2+27y+1200=0

Dividing by -3

\displaystyle y^2-9y-400=0

Factoring

\displaystyle (y-25)(y+16)=0

It leads to these solutions

\displaystyle y=25\ ,\ y=-16

Taking back the change of variable, we have for the first solution

\displaystyle x^2=25\Rightarrow x=-5,x=5

Now for the second solution, we get imaginary (complex) values

\displaystyle x^2=-16\Rightarrow x=4i,\ x=-4i

Summarizing, the four solutions for x are

\displaystyle x=-5,\ x=5,\ x=4i,\ x=-4i
