Answer:

Style A shoes sold : <u>152</u>

Style B shoes sold : <u>88</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

  • Style A shoes = x
  • Style B shoes = y

Forming equations :

  1. x = 2y - 24
  2. 66.95x + 84.95y = 17,652

Substitute the value of x from 1 in 2.

  • 66.95 (2y - 24) + 84.95y = 17,652
  • 133.90y - 1606.80 + 84.95y = 17,652
  • 218.85y = 19258.80
  • <u>y = 88</u>

<u />

Finding x :

  • x = 2(88) - 24
  • x = 176 - 24
  • <u>x = 152</u>

<u />

Solution :

  • Style A shoes sold : <u>152</u>
  • Style B shoes sold : <u>88</u>

Find two numbers whos diffrence is 16 and the product is 720
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

the numbers who's difference is 16 and the product is 720 is

36 &20

Explanation:

to finding numbers you have to express the equation in a quadratic equation then Factor it.

since the two numbers have a difference of 16 you can say that the first number is x and the second number is x -16 then their product is 720.

x(x-16)=720

x²-16x=720

x²-16x-720=0

(x-36)(x+20)

there are two possible value of x but since you are looking for the positive value of x, choose the positive value of x the first number is 20.

To find the second number

x-16=20

x=20+16

x=36

the second number is 36

<u>Now </u><u>to </u><u>check</u>

<u>3</u><u>6</u><u>-</u><u>2</u><u>0</u><u>=</u><u>1</u><u>6</u>

<u>2</u><u>0</u><u>*</u><u>3</u><u>6</u><u>=</u><u>7</u><u>2</u><u>0</u>
