What is your yield percent? Ten large fryer chickens weigh 31 #’s. If you ended up with 14 #s and 2 oz. of clean meat

The correct answer is - 45.56%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

chicken weighs = 31 lbs

left clean meat = 14 lbs and 2 oz or 14+2/16

Formula:

A reasonable assumption for the definition of 'yield percent' is :

= (lbs of edible product) / (lbs of product as-purchased) * 100%

Solution:

Putting the values in the given formula:

= (14 + 2/16) / (31) * 100

= 14.125 / 31 * 100

 = 45.56%  (or 45.6% when rounded to one decimal place).

step-by-step explanation:

5x + 3y = - 4

step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in standard form is

ax + by = c ( a is a positive integer and b, c are integers )

express the line first of all in slope- intercept form

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

to calculate m use the gradient formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (7, - 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, - 8)

m = = -

y = - x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

using (4, - 8 ), then

- 8 = - + c ⇒ c = -

y = - x - ← in slope-intercept form

multiply all terms by 3 to eliminate the fractions

3y = - 5x - 4 ( add 5x to both sides )

5x + 3y = - 4 ← in standard form
