Step-by-step explanation:

$\tt{ \: H \: E \: Y \: \: T \: H \: E \: R\: E \: }$ !

When Loss and Selling price ( SP ) are given , Cost price ( CP ) can be found out using the following formulae :

✰ $\large{ \boxed{ \boxed{ \tt{CP = Loss + SP}}}}$

$\text{How \: did\: we \:get \:the \: formula : \: CP \: = Loss \: + \: SP} \:$ ?

We simply derived the formula from Loss = CP - SP.

First , Swap the sides of the equation :

⟶ $\text{CP - SP = Loss}$

Move SP to right hand side and change it's sign :

⟶ $\text{CP = Loss + SP}$

This is how , CP can be obtained when we are given loss and SP.

Hope I helped ! ♡

Answer:

The cat should receive 1/5 of the can of food at each meal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a cat is to receive 90 kcal of a canned food at each meal, and the food has a caloric density of 450 kcal per can, to determine what fraction of a can it should receive at each meal, the following calculation must be performed:

1 / (450/90) = X

1/5 = X

Thus, the cat should receive 1/5 of the can of food at each meal.

Answer: The required solution of the given system is

(x, y) = (3, 1) and (4, 0).

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to solve the following system of equations :

$x+y=4~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)\\\\y=x^2-8x+16~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(ii)$

From equation (i), we have

$x+y=4\\\\\Rightarrow y=4-x~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(iii)$

Substituting the value of y from equation (iii) in equation (ii), we get

$y=x^2-8x+16\\\\\Rightarrow 4-x=x^2-8x+16\\\\\Rightarrow x^2-8x+16-4+x=0\\\\\Rightarrow x^2-7x+12=0\\\\\Rightarrow x^2-4x-3x+12=0\\\\\Rightarrow x(x-4)-3(x-4)=0\\\\\Rightarrow (x-3)(x-4)=0\\\\\Rightarrow x-3=0,~~~~~~~x-4=0\\\\\Rightarrow x=3,~4.$
