Let the total cost of the item be represented by C and the price be represented by P, then given that t<span>he total cost of an item including sales tax is directly proportional to its price, thus</span>

C\propto P \\  \\ \Rightarrow C=kP

where k is a constant.

Given that <span>the total cost of a $32 item is $33.60, thus

33.60=32k \\  \\ \Rightarrow k= \frac{33.60}{32} =1.05

Therefore, the total cost on a $55 item is given by

C=1.05\times55=\$57.75</span>

A school bought pens, each costing $1, and pencils, each costing $0.5. The cost of the whole purchase was $220. How many pens an
Levart [38]

Answer:

200 pencils and 120 pens

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of pencils be x while pens be y.

Considering the cost of whole purchase then, we get the equation

0.5x+y=220

Considering the number of items bought, then the equation is

x-y=80

Adding the two equations then we have

1.5x=300

x=300/1.5=200

Consideeing that x-y=80 and x is 200 then

200-y=80

y=200-80=120

Therefore, the pencils were 200 and pens 120 pieces
