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

Answer:

m = 3/2

b = 0

y = 3/2x

Step-by-step explanation:

M is the slope, which is the rise/run of a line.

Using this, we know m is 3/2.

B is the y-intercept, which is where the line crosses the y-axis. In this case, B equals 0.

We use this information to put together our final equation of y= 3/2x (since B equals 0, there is no + or - after the slope)
