Monica’s school band held a car wash to raise money for a trip to a parade in New York City. After washing 125 cars, they made $

775 from a combination of $5.00 quick washes and $8.00 premium washes.
Let x represent the number of quick washes and let y represent the number of premium washes. Which system of linear equations represents the situation?

The system of linear equations represents the situation is;

x + y = 125

x + y = 1255x + 8y = 775

<h3>Simultaneous equation</h3>

Simultaneous equation is an equation in two unknown values are being solved for at the same time.

let

  • number of quick washes = x
  • number of premium washes = y

x + y = 125

5x + 8y = 775

From equation (1)

x = 125 - y

5x + 8y = 775

5(125 - y) + 8y = 775

625 - 5y + 8y = 775

- 5y + 8y = 775 - 625

3y = 150

y = 150/3

y = 50

  • Substitute y = 50 into

x + y = 125

x + 50 = 125

x = 125 - 50

x = 75

Therefore, the number of quick washes and premium washes Monica’s school band had is 75 and 50 respectively.

At Elisa's printing company, there are two kinds of printing presses: Model A, which can print 70 books/ day, and model B, which
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

9 Model As.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A represent Press A and let B represent Press B.

So, they own 14 total presses. This means that:

A+B=14

They can print 905 books per day, in other words, since A prints 70 per day and B prints 55 per day:

70A+55B=905

This is now a system of equations. Solve by substitution. From the first equation, subtract B from both sides:

A=14-B

Substitute this into the second equation: "

70(14-B)+55B=905

First, we can divide everything by 5 to simplify things:

14(14-B)+11B=181

Distribute the left:

196-14B+11B=181

Combine like terms:

-3B+196=181

Subtract 196 from both sides:

-3B=-15

Divide both sides by -3

B=5

So, the company has 5 Model B presses.

Which means that the company has 14-5 or 9 Model A presses.

And we're done!

A photograph was enlarged to a width of 15 inches. If the scale factor was 3 /2 , what was the width of the original photograph?
andre [41]
If the width is 15, and the scale factor from width to length is 3:2, then you will have to divide 15 by 3 to get your original width.
15/3 = 5.
5 is your original width.
