Answer:
11 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Length of new pencil = 19 cm
Length of pencil after using a month = 8 cm
Question asked:
The pencil is centimeters shorter now than when it was new = ?
Solution:
Length of new pencil = 19 cm
Length of pencil after using a month = 8 cm
The pencil is centimeters shorter now than when it was new = 19 cm - 8 cm
= 11 cm
Length of pencil has been used during a month = 11 cm
Things we know:
Six total pots = # of 10" + # of 8"
$78 total = cost of 10" + cost of 8"
So:
6 = x +y
and
78 = x*(cost of x) + y * (cost of y)
78 = x*12 + y*15
We need:
x+y=6 AND 12x+15y=78
So our answer can only be B.
