Maxim works at a bird banding station. While weighing the birds, he notices that the Cooper's

Hawk weighs as much as the Robin and the Mockingbird together. The Mockingbird and the

Cooper's Hawk together weigh as much as the Kestrel and the Robin together. How many ounces

does the Mockingbird weigh, if the Kestrel weighs 96 oz?

c = r+ m or

-r-m = -c

k+r = m+ c add red equations ( ...and k = 96 oz)

96 -m = m

m = 48 oz ( a VERY large mutant mocking bird !)
