Answer:
193650
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the cost must be no more than 387$, you can substitute that number instead of y to get 387 = 0.002x - 0.30. you can add 0.30 to both sides to get 387.3 = 0.002x
Then you can divide both sides by 0.002 to get 387.3/0.002 = 193650
Answer:
Option B. 7
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this question we first have to find out what is the difference between the prices of a pen and a pencil. SO we get...
60 - 4- = 20 cents
Now if we were to assume that all 17 items were pencils then Diane would pay....
17 x 0.40 = $6.8
But then he pays 8.2-6.8 = $1.4 less than he should be.
If we substitute one pencil with a pen the total will increase by 20 cents. From here we can easily get the number of pens by doing the following...
1.4 / 0.2 = 7 pens
Therefore option B is the right answer.
