Donna sold 3 pencils and 8 pens solved using simultaneous equation

What is a simultaneous equation?

Simultaneous equation refers to related equations that are solved at the same to derive answers to the unknown variables

Let assume that X pencils were sold and Y pens were sold

The total revenue is the sum of the prices multiplied by the quantities sold.

2X+3Y=30   (equation 1)

The sum of X and Y sold is 11

X+Y=11   (equation 2)

multiply the second equation by 2

2*(X+Y=11)

2X+2Y=22 (equation 3)

subtract equation 3 from 1

(2X+3Y=30)-(2X+2Y=22)

Y=8

Substitute for Y in equation 2

X+8=11

X=11-8

X=3

Which means he sold 3 pencils and 8 pens.

What is the measure of angle x?
Kaylis [27]
Hello!

The total measure of the angles in a triangle always add up to 180 degrees. 

The measures that you are given are 37 and 82 degrees. To find what angle x equals, we must first add together the angles that we know:
37 + 82 = 119

To find angle x, we simply subtract 119 from the total number of degrees (180):
180-119 = 61

The measure of angle x is 61 degrees. 

I hope this helps you! Have a fantastic day!
