Answer: $0.58

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let x represent pencil and y represent eraser

10x + 7y = 4.23   →   1(10x + 7y = 4.23)   →   10x + 7y =  4.23

3x  + y  = 0.95   →  -3(3x  + y  = 0.95)   →   <u>-21x - 7y</u> =<u> -6.65 </u>

                                                                    -11x         = -2.42

                                                                  <u>÷-11          </u>   <u>÷-11       </u>

                                                                         x        = 0.22  

      3x + y = 0.95

3(0.22) + y = 0.95

   0.66 + y = 0.95

               y = 0.29

2y = 2(0.29)  = 0.58

Rock musician Donny West is paid 15% on his CD sales and tour video sales. Last year, he sold one million CDs and 550,000 videos
olganol [36]
He had $5,000,000 in CD sales; $3,300,000 in video sales; and he earned $1,245,000 in royalties.

1,000,000 CDs * $5 each = $5,000,000
550,000 videos * $6 each = $3,300,000

Total sales = 5,000,000+3,300,000 = 8,300,000
15% royalties = 0.15(8,300,000) = 1,245,000
