Answer:
x = 1, y = 60
Step-by-step explanation:
Value of new-releases (x) = $20 each
Value of classic (y) = $8 each
Total budget = $500
Equation : 20x + 8y = 500
The librarian wants to purchase maximum DVDs. She can get more DVDs of classic movies for $8 as they are less costly.
Lets assume the librarian buys at least one new-release DVD.
x=1
20x + 8y = 500
8y + 20(1) = 500
y = 60
<em>Therefore, in a budget of $500, the librarian can purchase 60 classic movies and 1 new-release.</em>

Answer: 6 students
Step-by-step explanation:
The teacher wants to give each student 2/3 of a slice of pizza but only has 4 slices to give.
If each student gets 2/3 out of 4 slices, the number of students receiving will be:
= Slices / proportion per slice
= 4 / 2/3
= 4 * 3/2
= 12/2
= 6 students
