D would not correctly solve the problem it is adding more kittens instead of eliminating the ones already known
Amount of money collected in the 2-day fundraiser is represented by the following equations:
- 12x + 4y = 152 .................. (i)
- 32x + 12y = 420 .................. (ii)
where x is the cost of a chicken lunch and y is the cost of a vegetarian lunch
Multiplying (i) with 3 and subtracting it from (ii)
36x + 12y - (32x + 12y) = 456 - 420
⇒ 4x = 36
⇒ x = 9
Put value of x in (i)
⇒ 12 × 9 + 4y = 152
⇒ 108 + 4y = 152
⇒ 4y = 44
⇒ y = 11
Hence, cost of the vegetarian meal is 11.
he saves $860 per month
calculate each of his outgoings
rent =
× $3600 =
= $900
food =
× $3600 =
= $1440
activities =
× $3600 =
= $400
savings = $3600 - ( 900 + 1440 + 400 ) = $860
