Answer:
x= 5/4 ; y= -7/4
Step-by-step explanation:
I will solve your system by substitution.
(You can also solve this system by elimination.)
3x+y=2;5x−y=8
Step: Solve3x+y=2for y:
3x+y+−3x=2+−3x(Add -3x to both sides)
y=−3x+2
Step: Substitute−3x+2foryin5x−y=8:
5x−y=8
5x−(−3x+2)=8
8x−2=8(Simplify both sides of the equation)
8x−2+2=8+2(Add 2 to both sides)
8x=10
8x
8
=
10
8
(Divide both sides by 8)
x=

4
Step: Substitute

forxiny=−3x+2:
y=−3x+2
y=−3(

4
)+2
y=
−7
4
(Simplify both sides of the equation)

Answer:
180
Step-by-step explanation:
A=1/2*b*h
A= 1/2*8*25
180
we are given that
3 chickens to lay 32 eggs
now, we can find number of eggs per chicken
number of eggs per chicken= (total eggs)/(total chicken)
so, we get
number of eggs per chicken is

now, we can set up following
1.5 chicken : 1.5 eggs : 1.5 days
3 chickens : 3 eggs : 1.5 days
1 chicken : 1 egg : 1.5 days
Since, changing number of chicken won't affect time
time to lay eggs will always remain same
so,
for 1 chicken to lay
eggs
it takes
