D the argument is not valid because the conclusion does not follow from the premises
Use the point-slope formula
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-1=-3(x-1)
y-1=-3x+3
y=-3x+4
Answer:
80 persons haf fish and 152 persons had chicken
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
let the number of persons that had fish be x and chicken be y
so
12x+9y=2544------------------1
x+y= 232------------------------2
from 2
x= 232-y
substitute the value of x in 1
12(232-y)+9y=2544
2784-12y+9y=2544
2784-3y=2544
3y= 2784-2544
3y=240
y= 240/3
y=80
put y= 80 in 2
x+80= 232
x= 232-80
x=152
Hence 80 persons haf fish and 152 persons had chicken
