Create a system of equations
x + y = 123
5x + y = 343
I use substitution
y = 123 - x
5x + 123 - x = 343
4x + 123 = 343
4x = 220
x = 55
Plug in
x + y = 123
55 + y = 123
y = 68
Check
5x + y = 343
5(55) + 68 = 343
275 + 68 = 343
343 = 343

<h3>Answers:</h3><h3>First box = 57.14</h3><h3>Second box = 80</h3>
=============================================
Explanation:
If you save 65%, then you pay the remaining 35%
0.35x is the final price when x is the original price
0.35x = 20 solves to x = 57.14 approximately after dividing both sides by 0.35
57.14 goes in the first box
--------------
This must mean 80 goes in the other box.
Here's the steps on how to get 80
If you save 75% then you pay the remaining 25%
0.25x = 20
x = 20/0.25
x = 80
80 goes in the second box
Answer:
an = (n+3)/(n+1)
Step-by-step explanation:
The sequence can be written as ...
4/2, 5/3, 6/4, 7/5, 8/6, ...
where the first numerator is n+3 and the first denominator is n+1. Each numerator and denominator increase by 1 from term to term, so the explicit formula can be written
an = (n+3)/(n+1)
