What is the cost of each chicken and what is the cost of each duck

Each Chicken costs $8 and each duck costs $5

Step-by-step explanation:

Say chicken is c and duck is d

50c + 30d = $550 eqn 1

44c + 36d = $532 eqn 2

Multiply eqn 1 by 44 and eqn 2 by 50, we will have

(50c + 30d = $550) × 44

(44c + 36d = $532) × 50

2200c + 1320d = $24200 eqn 3

2200c + 1800d = $26600 eqn 4

Subtract eqn 3 from eqn 4 and we will have

480d = $2400

Dividing all through by 480 and we will have

d = $2400/480

d = $5

Which means each duck costs $5

To calculate the cost of chicken, substitute $5 for d in any of the eqns

50c + 30d = $550

50c + 30($5) = $550

50c + $150 = $550 , collect like terms and we will have

50c = $550 - $150

50c = $400  divide both sides by 50, and we will have

c = $8

Therefore chicken costs $8 each

a line is an defined derm because it

a)contains an infinite number of points b) can be used to create other geometric shapes c)describes something that does not have width or depth d) is a term that does not have a formal definition. a line is an undefined term because it: contains an infinite number of points.
