Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
S=31000+1500Y
Where S is salary and Y is # of years
b)
Salary in 5 years;
=31000+1500(5)
=31000+7500
=38500
You are right ! It is 8.246 and so on ;)
The total of 2 buckets of popcorn and 3 boxes of candy would be $23.25
To answer this question you need to form a set of simultaneous equations and solve them. We can do this by saying that a bucket of popcorn = P, and a box of candy = C. Then we can say:
4P + 6C = 46.50
P + C = 9.75
There are then two possible ways to solve; you can either say that C = 9.75 - P using the second equation and then substitute it into the first, or you can multiply the second equation by either 4 or 6 to cancel out P or C.
I’m going to multiply the second equation by 4:
4P + 4C = 39
Now we can subtract this for, the first equation:
4P + 6C = 46.50
4P + 4C = 39
2C = 7.50
C = 3.75
Now we can substitute this value of C into one of the equations to find P:
P + C = 9.75
P + 3.75 = 9.75
P = 6
And now to answer the question, you just multiply P by 2 and C by 3 and add them together, which gives you $23.25
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions :)
It’s d, looks like you got it already! With ratios, just pay attention to not only the numbers but order of the words as well, so you can be sure the ratio follows the problem.
