On a recent trip to the convenience store, you picked up 2 gallons of milk, 6 bottles of water, and 7 snack-size bags of chips.

Your total bill (before tax) was $25.65. If a bottle of water costs twice as much as a bag of chips, and a gallon of milk costs $1.90 more than a bottle of water, how much does each item cost?

Answer:

The water costs $1.90, the chips are $.95 and the milk is $3.80.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let m = milk

Let w = water

Let c = chips

2m+6w+7c =25.65      w = 2c     m = w + 1.90

For the first equation, substitute w for 2C and m for w + 1.90 to get:

2(w+1.90) +6(2c) + 7c = 25.65

2w+3.8+12c+7c=25.65

2w+19c = 21.85

Now substitute 2c for w:

2(2c)+19c =21.85

4c + 19c = 21.85

23c = 21.85

c = .95  Now that we know the cost of the chips we can use that to find the water and the milk for the original equations that we wrote at the top.

w = 2c

w=2(.95) = 1.90

m = w + 1.90 = 1.90+1.90 = 3.80

Hi there!
The question sounds really complex, but the mathematical operations behind it is figuratively simple. Here, we are told to find 19 (18.7 rounded up is 19) percent of 1,000. To do this, we can set up a proportion to model the whole scenario.
\frac{x}{1000} = \frac{19}{100}
Now, just solve for x by cross multiplying and simplifying.
\frac{x}{1000} = \frac{19}{100}

100x = 19000
x=190
Therefore, 190 people out of 1,000 people leave out pertinent information on their IRS forms. Hope this helped and have a terrific day!

Julie is a math tutor. She charges each student $210 for the first 7 hours of tutoring and $20 for each additional hour.
Maksim231197 [3]
She spent 17 hours tutoring

$210 = 7 hours

$20 x 10 hours = $200

$210 + $200 = $410
7 Hours + 10 Hours = 17 Hours
