Multiply both sides by -8 to get k = -16
To check the solution, plug in -16 into the original equation. You do in-fact get 2

For this problem you have yo set up two equations.
White shirts = w Yellow shirts = y
1st: w + y = 21
2nd: 9.95w + 11.50y = 235.30
Now we're going to do system of equations using substitution.
If w + y = 21, then y = 21 - w
If y = 21 - w, then you can substitute this in the second equation for y.
9.95w + 11.50(21 - w) = 235.30
9.95w + 241.5 - 11.50w = 235.30
-1.55w + 241.5 = 235.30
-1.55w = -6.2
w = 4, so 4 whites shirt were sold.
Now I'm finding out how many yellow shirts were sold using one of the two equations at the top.
w + y = 21
4 + y = 21
y = 17
So 17 yellow shirts were sold and 4 white shirts were sold.
Answer:
C. 490.
Step-by-step explanation:
25% = 0.25.
If the number of emails that Ryan and Taylor each received is x emails then Sara received 2x + 0.25 * 2x = 2.5 emails.
So 2x + 2.5x = 882
x = 882/4.5
x = 196.
So Sara received 2.5 * 196
= 490 emails.
