The answer is B. First solve the parentheses. Then make a quadratic equation and solve from there.
Answer:
The number of the television sets that is model p is 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we have total number of television sold = 40
The model p televisions sold for $30 less than the model q televisions
That is $P = $q - $30
Therefore
Let the quantity of the model p sold be X
Let the quantity of the model q sold be X
Therefore
x + y = 40
Total cost of the television = 40 * 141 = $5640
Therefore, 120*x + 90*y = 5640
Plugging in x = 40 - y in the above equation we get
4800 - 30y = 5640 or
y = -28 and
x = 68
If we put y = 40 - x we get
30x + 3600 = 5640
If we put
120*x + 150*y = 5640.........(3)
we get
x = 12 and y = 28
Therefore, since the model p sold for $30 less than the model q, from the solution of equation (3) the number of the television sets that is model p = 12
A= 12x-4(3x+2)/2. 36x2+24x-12x-8. 36x2+12x-8/2. 18x2+6x-4.
Solve for x by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable
x= -1/4
