1.65 + 0.85x= $20
           0.85x=$18.35
                 x=21 10/17 
first you write the equation 
then you have to subtract 1.65 from the equation but you also have to subtract it from 20 
then you divide 0.85 from 0.85x and from the 18.35 left over from subtracting 1.65 from 20 
then you should get x=21 10/17 (simplified) but the decimal form is a ongoing fraction so you can just round it up to the nearest hundredth

A woman bought some large frames for $10 each and some small frames for $5 each add a closeout sale if she bought 20 frames for
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

The quantity of large frames is 7

The quantity of small frames is 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The price of each large frames = $ 10

The price of each small frames = $ 5

The total number of both frames bought = 20

The price for both the frames = $ 135

Now,

Let the quantity of large frames = L

And The quantity of small frames = S

So , According to question

The total number of both frames bought = 20

Or, The quantity of large frames + the quantity of small frame = 135

Or, L + S = 20         ......A

And $ 10 L + $ 5 S = $ 135                         ................B

Or, $ 10× ( L + S ) = $ 10× 20

Or, $ 10 L + $ 10 S = $ 200

(  $ 10 L + $ 10 S ) - ( $ 10 L + $ 5 S ) = $ 200 - $ 135

Or , ( $ 10 L - $ 10 L ) + ( $ 10 S - $ 5 S ) = $ 65

Or, 0 + 5 S = 65

∴  S = \frac{65}{5}

I.e S = 13

So, The quantity of small frames = S = 13

Put the Value of S in eq A

So , L + S = 20

Or, L = 20 - S

Or, L = 20 - 13

∴   L = 7

So, The quantity of large frames = L = 7

Hence The quantity of large frames is 7

And   The quantity of small frames is 13   Answer
