Answer:
The total number of albums sold on the first day=34
Step-by-step explanation:
Derive expressions for the number of albums sold
each day;
Let;
the total number of albums sold on the first day=x
the total number of albums sold on the second day=y
but,
total number of albums sold on the second day is twice the total number of albums sold on the first day, therefor=, y=2×x= 2 x
The total number of albums sold for the two days can be expressed as;
Total sales=number sold on the first day+number sold on second day
where;
Total sales=102
number sold on the first day=x
number sold on second day= 2 x
replacing;
(x+2 x)=102
3 x=102
x=102/3
x=34
The total number of albums sold on the first day=34
