Sarah sold 66 posters

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Let "a" be the number of shirts sold

Let "b" be the number of posters sold

<em><u>Sarah sold a total of 178 t shirts and posters at a festival</u></em>

Therefore,

number of shirts sold + number of posters sold = 178

a + b = 178 ----------- eqn 1

<em><u>She sold 46 more tshirts than poster</u></em>

Number of shirts sold = 46 + number of posters sold

a = 46 + b --------- eqn 2

<em><u>Substitute eqn 2 in eqn 1</u></em>

46 + b + b = 178

2b = 178 - 46

2b = 132

b = 66

Thus she sold 66 posters

A rectangle has a perimeter of 60 inches. The length of the rectangle is 3 inches less than twice the width
liraira [26]

Answer:

width  = 11, len = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

length = 2w - 3

l = length

w = width

2(length) + 2(width) = perimeter

2(2w - 3) + 2(w) = 60

6w -6 =60

w = 11

len = 2(11) - 3

Jennie works for a cell phone company. She earns 250
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

Jennie pay would be \$ 300 on sales \$2000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Jennie earnings per week = \$ 250

On sales of \$1000 pay = \$275

Commission on \$ 1000sale = pay on \$ 1000 - earning per week= \$ 275- \$250=\$25

Commission on \$ 2000sale = 2 \times Commission on \$ 1000sale =2 \times \$ 25 = \$50

Now Total payment on sale of \$2000 = Jennie earnings per week + Commission on \$ 2000sale = \$ 250 + \$ 50= \$300

Jennie pay would be \$ 300on sales \$2000
