To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1. You must make a system of equation by using the information given in the problem above. Then, let's call:

x: The number of computers sold.

y: The number of hard drives sold.

2. Therefore, you have the following system of equations:

\left \{ {{x+y=36} \atop {1180x+125y=30875}} \right.

2. Solve for x in the first equation and substitute it into the second equation:

x=36-y\\ 1180(36-y)+125y=30875

3. Solve for y:

42480-1180y+125y=30875\\ y=11

4. Substitute the value of y into the first equation to calculate x:

x+11=36\\ x=25

Therefore, the answer is: The store sold 25 computers and 11 hard drives.

M is inversely proportional to r if m= 9 when r= 4 find m when r=2
bazaltina [42]

m=18 when r = 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

m∝\frac{1}{r}

So,

m = k×\frac{1}{r},--------eq 1, here k is the constant.

To find the value of m when r = 2

At first we need to find the value of k

Solution

Now,

Putting the values of m=9 and r = 4 in eq 1 we get,

9 = \frac{k}{4}

or, k = 36

So, eq 1 can be written as m= \frac{36}{r}

Now, we put r =2

m = \frac{36}{2}

or, m= 18

Hence,

m=18 when r = 2.
