Answer:

The answer to your question is Advance = $35 and same-day = $40

Step-by-step explanation:

Advanced = a

Same-day = s

Equations

                       a +     s  = 75               ----- (I)

                  20a + 35s = 2100            ----- (II)

Process

1.- Solve the equations by elimination.

Multiply equation I by -20

                     -20a - 20s = -1500

                      20a + 35s = 2100

Simplify

                        0   + 15s = 600

Solve for s                  s = 600/15

                                    s = $ 40        

Substitute "s" in equation I to find "a"

                       a   +   40  = 75

Solve for a

                       a    = 75  - 40

                       a = 35

At a historical landmark, candles are used to simulate an authentic atmosphere. A volunteer is currently putting new candles in
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

Each small candleholder holds 3 candles, and each large one holds 5 candles.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved by a system of equations.

I am going to say that:

x is the number of candles that a small candleholder holds.

y is the number of candles that a large candleholder holds.

24 small candle holders and 3 large candle holders, using a total of 87 candles.

This means that

24x + 3y = 87

Simplifying by 3

8x + y = 29

y = 29 - 8x

14 small candle holders and 7 large candle holders, for a total of 77 candles.

This means that 14x + 7y = 77

Simplifying by 7

2x + y = 11

y = 11 - 2x

Since y = 29 - 8x

11 - 2x = 29 - 8x

6x = 18

x = \frac{18}{6}

x = 3

y = 29 - 8x = 29 - 8*3 = 29 - 24 = 5

Each small candleholder holds 3 candles, and each large one holds 5 candles.

You gave $1,500 in bonuses to two employees. one employee received $200 more than the other employee.
Allushta [10]
1,500
+ 200
       = 1,700 
Because if just one employe gets $200 more than 1,500 in bonus then you would just simply add.
