Answer:
10 packs of juice and 15 packs of water was bought by Mr. Lincoln
Step-by-step explanation:
Mr. Lincoln buys juice and water for the school picnic. A pack of 8 juice boxes costs $5. A pack of 6 water bottles costs $3. Mr. Lincoln spends $95 for 170 juice boxes and bottles of water.
Solution:
Let x represent the number of packs of juice boxes bought by Mr. Lincoln and let y represent the number of packs of water bottles bought by Mr. Lincoln.
Each pack of juice cost $5 while each pack of water cost $3. Mr. Lincoln spends $95, therefore:
5x + 3y = 95 (1)
Each pack of juice contain 8 juice boxes and each pack of water contain 6 water bottles. Since 170 juice boxes and bottles of water was bought, therefore:
8x + 6y = 170 (2)
Solving equations (1) and (2) simultaneously. Multiply equation (1) by 2 and then subtract equation (2) from the result to get:
2x = 20
x = 10
Substitute x = 10 in equation (1):
5(10) + 3y = 95
50 + 3y = 95
3y = 45
y = 15
Hence 10 packs of juice and 15 packs of water was bought by Mr. Lincoln
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1. - 3x + 32 = - x - 12
-3x + x = - 12 - 32
-2x = - 44
x = 44/2 = 22
2. 8x + 16 = x + 9
8x - x = 9 - 16
7x = - 7
x = - 7/7
= - 1
3. 3x + 2 = 2x - 55
3x - 2x = - 55 - 2
x = - 57
Amount of decreased water = 3/10
Then, it would be 3/10 * 100 = 30%
So, your answer is 30%
If paul moved his market 2 units left and 3 units down his new location would be (1,5) in order for it to be the location (0,6) he would of had to move it 3 units left and 2 units down. so he had it backwards. I hope this helps!
