We are given that Jack and Jillian sell apples at a produce stand .
We are given that an expression which shows Jack's earning=2x-8
We have to find that first term what represent in the given expression
Jillian earns for each bag of apples she sells=$2
Let Jillian sold number of bags of apples =x
Then ,Jillian earn total at the end of the week =
Jack has earned $ 8 less than Jillian earn
Therefore, total earning of jack=
In the given expression the first term 2x represent the earning of Jillian.
50,000 + 100x = 75,000
He sold 250 Computers last year
Make the coefficient of y the same in both equations:
To do this, multiply equation one by 2, and equation two by 5 (this will make the coefficient 10 in both).
14x + 10y = 38
-35x - 10y = -80
Eliminate the y variable by adding the equations from each other
(14x + 10y = 38)
+ (-35x - 10y = -80)
= -21x + 0y = -42
We now have -21x = -42. The y variable has been eliminated.
Solve for x
-21x = -42
Divide both sides by -21 to get x on its own.
x = 2
Substitute x into the equation to find y.
7*2+5y=19
14+5y=19
Subtract 14 from both sides.
5y=19-14
5y=5
Divide by 5 on both sides to get y on its own.
y=5/5
y=1
The answer is (2,1)
She gonna need to buy 32 boxes because 315 divided by 10 is 31 r 5 and also you can't buy 31 boxes because 5 kids aren't gonna have pencils so she needs to buy 32 boxes of pencils
