Answer:
- <u>120 pens and 200 pencils.</u>
<u></u>
Explanation:
You can set a system of two equations.
<u>1. Variables</u>
<u />
- x: number of pens
- y: number of pencils
<u>2. Cost</u>
- <em>each pen costs</em> $1, then x pens costs: x
- <em>each pencil costs</em> $0.5, then y pencil costs: 0.5y
- Then, the total cost is: x + 0.5y
- The cost of the whole purchase was $ 220, then the first equation is:
x + 0.5y = 220 ↔ equation (1)
<u>3. </u><em><u>There were 80 more pencils than pens</u></em>
Then:
pencils = 80 + pens
↓ ↓
y = 80 + x ↔ equation (2)
<u>4. Solve the system</u>
i) Substitute the equation (2) into the equation (1):
ii) Solve
iii) Substitute x = 120 into the equation (2)
Solution: 120 pens and 200 pencils ← answer

11) Twenty-five thousandths
13) A
14) Sixty-eight and 4 tenths
Not sure on 10 and 12
Refrection of (-20, 4) across x-axis gives (-20, 4) = (-20, -4)
Refrection of (-20, 4) across y-axis gives (20, 4)
Refrection of (-20, 4) across y = -x gives (20, -4)
Refrection of (-20, 4) across y = 7 gives (20, 10)
