First, you multiply 600 and .20 to find 20% of 600 rupees, which is 120 rupees. Second, you subtract the 20%, (120 rupees) from 600 rupees, which is 480 rupees. After that, you have the original selling price of 480 rupees that the man purchased the article for, but the question is stating that he gained 15% of the original sales price. So, you multiply 480 and .15 to find 15% of 480 rupees, which is 72. However, he GAINED more money than what he payed for the article so you add 72 rupees to 480 rupees to get 552 rupees. In conclusion, the man sells the article for 552 rupees.

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

x = 5 , y = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this using substitution.

Let the quantity of cheese wafers be denoted by x and the quantity of chocolate wafers denoted by y

2x + 1y = 25

x + y = 20

These two equations are the answer to part A, (remember to include the above prompt which says what x and y denote).

For part B I used substitution because it was more applicable to the question then addition or elimination.

ACTUAL WORK

Set 2x + 1y = 25 equal to x

x = 25 - y / 2

Replace x with y in the second equation

(25 - y / 2) + y = 20

And solve for y

y = 15

Since we know what y is we can replace y in the second equation and find what x is

x + 15 = 20

Solve for x

x = 5
