Answer:

  • 490 pens
  • 510 pencils

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p represent the number of pens Nick sold. Then the revenue is ...

  0.10p +0.05(1000 -p) = 74.50

  0.05p = 24.50 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses, subtract 50

  p = 490 . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 20

The number of pencils sold is then ...

  pencils = 1000 -490 = 510

Nick's Printing Press sold 490 pens and 510 pencils.
