We know that there are 21 buttons total. x is the number of small buttons and y is the number of large buttons. 

Therefore, our first equation should be x+y = 21.

We know the small buttons sell for 3 dollars, meaning 3x represents how much is made from the small buttons. The larger buttons sell for 4 dollars, meaning 4y is how much is made from the large buttons. 

We also know that the total of the buttons sold is 68 dollars. Therefore 3x + 4y = 68 is our second equation.

From this information, the answer is the first set.

Sam is looking for a cell phone plans.A local company offers a monthly plan for $58.95. The company is having a sale and offerin
AysviL [449]

Answer:

Correct cost for the cell phone monthly plan = 54.2$

Explanation:

Price for monthly plan = 58.95$

Discount = 4.75 $

New cost found out by Sam = 11.45$

Discount considered by Sam = 58.95 - 11.45 = 47.5$

So, Instead of considering discount amount of 4.75$ Sam accidentally considered 47.5$, so he got 11.45$ as new cost for the cell phone plan.

Actual cost = 58.95 - 4.75 = 54.2$

Correct cost for the cell phone monthly plan = 54.2$

Therefore, half of 1/4 is 1/8. 1/4 means 0.25 if you devide it by 2 you will get 0.125 so 1/8 is half of 1/4.
