Answer:

Let p be the number of pencils.

3(14-p)=30+p

42-3p=30+p

4p=12, p=3.

So Peter ends up with 33 and Tony with 11. 3*11=33, so that confirms that Tony gave Peter 3 pencils.

Bad White [126]

Answer:

$131250

Step-by-step explanation:

Talia's earnings during one year are equal to her base yearly salary ($65000) added to her commission. Now, to know the commission it is necessary to find the 2.65% of her total sales ($2.5 million)

Step 1. Divide the total sales or 2,500,000 by 100 considering this represents the total or 100%

2,500,000 ÷ 100 = 25000

Step 2. Multiply this number by the specific percentage (2.65)

25000 x 2.65 = 66250

Now add the commission and the yearly salary

65000 + 66250 = 131250

Hence, total earnings of Talia were $131250

Jackson had $25 to spend on groceries . After purchasing 5 cantaloupes he had $2.50 left how much did each cantaloupe cost
charle [14.2K]
Since the price of the cantaloupes is unknown, it will have to represented by a variable. Let's use x.
If Jackson starts with $25 and buys 5 cantaloupes of an unknown price, this subtracts 5 times the amount of 1 cantaloupe (which is x) from that $25.
This is shown as 25 - 5x.
After spending that money, he has $2.50 left over.
This means 25 - 5x = 2.50.
Now you just need to solve this by first isolating the variable.
First, subtract 25 from both sides.
25 - 5x - 25 = -5x
2.50 - 25 = -22.5
Then, divide both sides by -5. It's -5 since 5 is the coefficient and it's negative, so -5.
-5x / -5 = x
-22.5 / -5 = 4.5
This means x = 4.5.
And if x is 4.5, then that means the cost of 1 cantaloupe is $4.50.
