An error occurred in your bookkeeping department this month. The price of one of the smart phones that you sell is $489. Several

customers were charged $565 for the phone instead. You know that the total sales for this month were $213,873 and that 401 phones were sold. How many phones were sold at the wrong price?

The first thing we must do for this case is to define a variable.
 We have then:
 x: number of phones that were sold at the wrong price.
 y: number of phones that were sold with the correct price.
 We now write the system of equations that represents the problem.
 We have then:
 565x + 489y = 213873

x + y = 401

 Resolving the system graphically we have:
 x = 234

y = 167
 Note: see attached image for the graphic solution.
 Answer:
 
234 phones were sold at the wrong price

6x-5y=9.....
Slope = 2.400/2.000 = 1.200
x-intercept = 9/6 = 3/2 = 1.50000
y-intercept = 9/-5 = -1.80000
So -18+1.8b=-27
Slope = 10
x-intercept = 15/10 = 3/2 = 1.50000
b-intercept = 15/-1 = -15.00000

5x2 + 3y2 = 68<br> 4x2-2y2 = -16
AlladinOne [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply ,1 st x 2 and 2nd x 3

so,

10 X2 + 6y2 = 136

12 X2 - 6y2 = - 48

________________

22 X 2 = 8 8

X 2 = 88 / 22

X2 = 44

X= ± 2✓ 11

y 2= 96

y = ± 4✓ 6
