Answer: 16 double rooms and 10 single rooms were rented.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of double rooms that were rented.

Let y represent the number of single rooms that were rented.

The total number of rooms rented in a day is 26. It means that

x + y = 26

A motel rents double rooms at $34 per day and single rooms at $26 per day. If all the rooms that were rented for one day cost a total of $804, it means that

34x + 26y = 804 - - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 26 - y into equation 1, it becomes

34(26 - y) + 26y = 804

884 - 34y + 26y = 804

- 34y + 26y = 804 - 884

- 8y = - 80

y = - 80/ - 8 = 10

x = 26 - y = 26 - 10

x = 16

I need help on #12 please
Novosadov [1.4K]
So 10.38 gal at 2.289 oer gal but you want american mony so round 2.289 to two decimal places so 2.29 per gallon

2.29 times 10.38=23.7702 but you just cross out the '2' in the ten-thousanth's place because 1/50 of a cent is really small


it is not possible to pay 9/10 of a cent so they just want you to round it up to 1 cent or10/10 cent

a triangle has a perimeter of 10x+2 . two sides have lengths of 5x and 2x+9 what is the length of the 3rd side
stiks02 [169]
Since all the sides add up to 10x+2, that means that 10x-2-<side1>-<side2>=<side3>. Plugging it in, we have 10x-2-5x-(2x+9)=side3, and 5x-2-(2x+9)=side3, then expanding it to 5x-2-2x-9=3x-11=side3
