Solution:

we are given that

A farmer raised 60 goats, then entered into a series of business transactions. He traded all the goats for sheep at an exchange rate of 5 goats for 7 sheep.

since

It mean he get ships in exchange.

Next, he exchanged all the sheep for hogs at a a rate of 4 sheep for 2 hogs weighing 250 lbs.

Again

It mean he get hogs in exchange.

Each weighing 250 lbs.

So Total weight of 42 hogs lb

He sold all the hogs at a market price of $55.00 per 100.0 lbs.

Again

So he get $

So total money he made =5775$

what does x eaqual

step-by-step explanation:

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

eventually after a few more steps, your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x
