N/d = 15
d= 4 + 3n

d=n/15
n/15=4+3n
n=60+45n
44n=-60
n=-15/11
-15/11 / d = 15
-15/11 = 15d
d=-1/11

15/11 / 1/11. = 15

Answer:

$19 for one package of oatmeal cookie dough and $14 for one package of chocolate chip cookie dough

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to set up two equations: one that shows how much money Mike made and one that shows how much money Shawna made.  

Let's make a = price for one chocolate chip cookie dough and b = price for one oatmeal cookie dough.

First equation for Mike: 12a + 3b = 225

Second equation for Shawna: 6a + 11b = 293

Next we isolate b from Mike's equation: b = 75 - 4a

Then we plug this equation into Shawna's equation and we get:

6a + 11(75 - 4a) = 293

Solving for a would get us 14, or $14 for one chocolate chip cookie dough.

If we plug 14 = a into Mike's original equation and solve for b, we get b = 19, or $19 for one oatmeal cookie dough.

Hope this helped!

Two certificates of deposit pay interest that differ by 3%. Money invested for one year in the first CD earns $240 interest. The
Soloha48 [4]

a = interest rate of first CD

b = interest rate of second CD

and again, let's say the principal invested in each is $X.

\bf a-b=3\qquad \implies \qquad \boxed{b}=3+a~\hfill \begin{cases} \left( \frac{a}{100} \right)X=240\\\\ \left( \frac{b}{100} \right)X=360 \end{cases} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \left( \cfrac{a}{100} \right)X=240\implies X=\cfrac{240}{~~\frac{a}{100}~~}\implies X=\cfrac{24000}{a} \\\\\\ \left( \cfrac{b}{100} \right)X=360\implies X=\cfrac{360}{~~\frac{b}{100}~~}\implies X=\cfrac{36000}{b} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\

\bf X=X\qquad thus\qquad \implies \cfrac{24000}{a}=\cfrac{36000}{b}\implies \cfrac{24000}{a}=\cfrac{36000}{\boxed{3+a}} \\\\\\ (3+a)24000=36000a\implies \cfrac{3+a}{a}=\cfrac{36000}{24000}\implies \cfrac{3-a}{a}=\cfrac{3}{2} \\\\\\ 6-2a=3a\implies 6=5a\implies \cfrac{6}{5}=a\implies 1\frac{1}{5}=a\implies \blacktriangleright 1.2 = x\blacktriangleleft

\bf \stackrel{\textit{since we know that}}{b=3+a}\implies b=3+\cfrac{6}{5}\implies b=\cfrac{21}{5}\implies b=4\frac{1}{5}\implies \blacktriangleright b=4.2 \blacktriangleleft
