Answer:
Cleanser that costs 50 cents is 1400 liters, Cleanser that costs 80 cents is 600 liters.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve this by using <em>simultaneous equations</em>:
- Let us express the question in terms of equations
Let a be cleanser at 50 cents and let b be the cleanser at 80 cents.
Equation 1: 0.5a + 0.8b = 0.59(a+b)
Equation 2: a + b = 2000
From equation 2, a = 2000 - b (Let's call this equation 3)
2. Substituting equations 2 and 3 in Equation 1:
0.5a + 0.8b = 0.59(a+b)
0.5(2000 - b) + 0.8b = 0.59(2000)
1000 - 0.5b + 0.8b = 1180
0.3b = 180
b = 600
Substitute in equation 3:
a = 2000 - 600
a = 1400
As a note, I formed equation 1 because I know for a fact the cost per liter of a and b. I also know it is sold at 0.59 cents per liter. We are selling 2000 liters in this instance, therefore 0.59(2000) = 1180, which in this case is the selling price.
So what you would do is divide 988 by 26 and divide 731 by 17 and those two numbers you would add which gives you the amount of people that attended the performance
Answer:
x^2 +4x+4 = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
To complete the square take the coefficient of the x term
4
Divide by 2
4/2 =2
Square it
2^2 =4
Add it to both sides of the equation
x^2 +4x+4 = 4
