70 x n%= 56

n% = 70 x 56

n = 0.8 x 100

n = 80

the percent decrease = 100 - 80

= 20 %

Last month, he sold 505050 chickens and 303030 ducks for \$550$550dollar sign, 550. This month, he sold 444444 chickens and 3636
Nostrana [21]

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

Compare the functions.
marshall27 [118]

Function h has the largest y-intercept which is 44

Step-by-step explanation:

Any linear function is represented in the form

f(x) = mx+b

Here b is the y-intercept of the linear function i.e. the constant term in the function.

We will compare all the functions with the general form we get

y-intercept of f(x) = 1

y-intercept of g(x) = 8

y-intercept of h(x) = 44

y-intercept of j(x) = 0

Hence,

Function h has the largest y-intercept which is 44

What are two equivalent forms for 15xyz+10xy+5x
7nadin3 [17]
We can express this number in the standard form, which is simply 15xyz+10xy+5x.  Alternatively, we can factor a 5 or an x out, receiving 5(3xyz+2xy+x) or x(15yz+10y+5).  However, the most effective factorization is to factor out 5x, for a result of 5x(3yz+2y+1).

olga_2 [115]

Answer:

5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

±√(- 2 - 1)^2 + (- 1 - 3)^2 = ±5 (rej - 5 since distance > 0)

Apply distance formula
