Answer:

  • 45 regular keyboards
  • 15 wireless keyboards

Step-by-step explanation:

A set of 3 regular and 1 wireless keyboard would sell for ...

  3×$83 +110 = $359

For the given sales, the number of sets sold was ...

  $5385/($359/set) = 15 sets

Since there are 3 regular keyboards in each set, there were 3×15 = 45 regular keyboards sold. The number of each type of keyboards sold is ...

  45 regular keyboards and 15 wireless keyboards

<em>Comment on this solution</em>

When a problem statement tells you the ratio of one kind of item to another, it is often convenient to group the items in that ratio and deal with the groups. Sometimes, there will be a few missing or left over, for example "10 more than 3 times as many." In those cases, you can make an adjustment to the total and still deal with the groups. (Any equations you might write will effectively do this same thing.)

Using the quadratic formula to solve 7x2 – x = 7, what are the values of x?
Kruka [31]
How the quadratic formula works:

For any quadratic equation ax² + bx + c = 0, the solution is x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}.

In the case of our equation 7x² - x = 7, first we need to subtract 7 from each side so that we have 0 on the right.
7x² - x - 7 = 0

Identify the values of a, b, and c.
a = 7, b = -1, and c = -7.

Plug these into our quadratic formula and solve.

x=\frac{-(-1)\pm\sqrt{(-1)^2-4(7)(-7)}}{2(7)}=\boxed{\frac{1\pm\sqrt{197}}{14}

There are two values for x: (1+√197)/14 and (1-√197)/14.
The approximate values for these are 1.073976 and -0.931119.
