d buys 35 more units than the other two stores combined, CD World's cost is only $160 per unit. The players cost Hi-Fi $165 each and Ace $170 each. How many players does each retailer buy each month if the distributor receives $31,750 each month from the sale of the players to the three stores?

Answer:

Ace Electronics buys 30, Hi-Fi Stereo buys 50, and CD World buys 115

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of items Ace Electronics buys

Let y represent the number of items Hi-Fi Stereo buys

Let z represent the number of items CD World buys

Since Ace Electronics, Hi-Fi Stereo, and CD World buy a total of 195 DVD players:

x + y + z = 195   (1)

Since CD World buys 35 more units than the other two stores combined:

z = x + y + 35   (2)

If you substitute z in equation 1 from equation 2:

x + y + (x + y + 35) = 195

2(x + y) = 195- 35

x + y = 80   (3)

Since z = x + y + 35:

z = 80 + 35

z = 115

Since CD World's cost is $160 per unit, Hi-Fi 's cost is $165 per unit and Ace Electronics's cost is $170 per unit and the total payment received is $31,750

170x + 165y + 160z = 31750   (Substitute x from equation 3 and z as 115)

170(80-y) + 165y + 160(115) = 31750

13600 - 170y  + 165y + 18400 = 31750

32000 - 5y = 31750

5y = 250

y = 50

Since x + y = 80:

x + 50 = 80

x = 30

mr_godi [17]

Answer:

16 pots

Step-by-step explanation:

We first need to find out the amount of dirt that can be filled into a single flowerpot.

We use the formula to find the cylinder's volume.

πr^{2}* h

Height is equal to ten, Radius is equal to 7.

49π * 10

≈ 1539.38

25,000 divided by 1539.38

≈ 16.24

He can fill 16 pots fully.
