Answer:

<h2>C.  $1,689.00</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount spent by Tim be x and the amount spent by Nikko be y

If Tim spent $55 more than 2/3 of the amount that Nikko spent for his computer, then amount spent by Tim will be x = 55+2/3 y

Since the total amount that Tim and Nikko spent for their computers was $2,870 then;

x+y = $2,870

Substituting  x = 55+2/3y into the equation above, we will have;

55+2y/3 + y = 2,870

(165 + 2y)/3 + y = 2,870

(165 + 2y+3y)/3 = 2,870

cross multiply

165 + 2y+3y =  3*2870

165+5y = 8610

5y = 8610-165

5y = 8445

y = 8445/5

y = 1689

<em>Hence Nikko spent  a sum of $1,689.00 on his computer.</em>

OleMash [197]
<span>The solution to the equation 2/3 A= -24 is the coordinate of point A.

2/3 A = -24
A = -24 / 2/3
A = -24 * 3/2
A = -72/2
A = -36

The solution to the equation 20=-b/0.5 is the coordinate of point B

20 = -b/0.5
20 * 0.5 = -b
10 = -b
10/-1 = -b/-1
-10 = b

A = -36 and B = -10

The distance between the two letters is 26 units. </span>
