Answer:
notebook: $2.5
pen: $1.5
part B, he can buy 3 pens
Step-by-step explanation:
A
let the cost of notebook be n, cost of pen be p
1. 4n + 3p = 14.5
2. 5n + 6p = 21.5
by 1, you can get 3p = 14.5 - 4n, put it into 2
5n + 2(14.5 - 4n) = 21.5
5n + 29 - 8n = 21.5
3n = 29 - 21.5 = 7.5
n = 2.5
put n = 2.5 into 1
4(2.5) + 3p = 14.5
3p = 4.5
p = 1.5
B
Waseem buy 3 notebooks for each pen, let number of pen be m, then the number of notebook will be 3m
m(2.5) + 3m(1.5) < 27
2.5m + 4.5m = 7m < 27
m < 27/7
maximum integer value for m = 3
I believe its c because that is the suitable answer
Answer:
5 shirts must be sold.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, set up the equation. Each shirt (x) is sold for $16:
For every amount (y) for x: (y)(x) = (16)(y)
The cost is $4, with the setup fee as $60.
(16)(y) = (4)(y) + 60
16y = 4y + 60
Isolate the variable (y). Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. First, subtract 4y from both sides.
16y (-4y) = 4y (-4y) + 60
16y - 4y = 60
12y = 60
Next, isolate the variable (y). Divide 12 from both sides.
(12y)/12 = (60)/12
y = 60/12
y = 5
5 shirts must be sold.
To check, plug in 5 for y in the equation:
16y = 4y + 60
16(5) = 4(5) + 60
Simplify.
16(5) = 4(5) + 60
80 = 4(5) + 60
80 = 20 + 60
80 = 80 (True).

Answer: 288
Workings : 16 x 12 =192 (for bottom rectangle bit) 12x 16 =192 then divide 192 by 2 =96 add them together and its 288
