Answer:
-10x + 1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The rate of interest on three accounts are 7%, 8%, 9%.
She has twice as much money invested at 8% as she does in 7%.
She has three times as much at 9% as she has at 7%.
Total interest for the year is $150.
To find:
Amount invested on each rate.
Solution:
Let x be the amount invested at 7%. Then,
The amount invested at 8% = 2x
The amount invested at 9% = 3x
Total interest for the year is $150.

Multiply both sides by 100.


Divide both sides by 50.


The amount invested at 7% is
.
The amount invested at 8% is

The amount invested at 9% is

Therefore, the stockbroker invested $300 at 7%, $600 at 8%, and $900 at 9%.

Answer:
Jenna sold 280 boxes, Becca sold 105 boxes.
Step-by-step explanation:
For every 3 boxes B sold, J sold 8 boxes and ended with a total of 385 boxes sold.
3b+8j=385
From how the question is asked, we can assume that each round of sales would equal 11 total sales. (3b+8j=11)
Knowing the sales take place in intervals of 11, we can solve the problem by doing 385/11.
385/11=35
Finally, with 35 rounds of sales happening and knowing Jenna sells 8 while Becca sells 3 at each one, all that's left to do is multiply.
8x35=280
3x35=105
To be sure we can check our answer by adding them together, 280+105=385.
