yes I know but will not give answer because you have not say that
Answer:
Let x be the discounting price of a surfing lessons per person
Let y be the discounted price of a surfing lessons per person
The cost of taking a surfing lesson and go parasailing is $130
x + y = 130--------------(i)
25 people take
Surfing lessons, and 30 people go parasailing and a total of $3,650 is collected
25x + 30y = 3650--------------(ii)
We solve for y using equ (i):
y = 130 - x ------------(iii)
Substitute equ (iii) to equ (ii) and solve for x
25x + 30(130 - x) = 3650
25x + 390 - 30x = 3650
-5x = -250
-x = 50
We solve for y using equ (iii):
y = 130 - x
y = 130 - 50
y = 80
So, the discounted price to take a surfing lesson is $50 and the discounted price to go parasailing is $80
Let no red ribbons=x
no. Of blue ribbons=x+3
No. Of yellow ribb9ns=x+7
Totsl ribbons=28
28=x+x+3+x+7
28=3x+10
3x=28-10
3x=18
X=18/3
X=6
No .of red ribbons=6
No. Of blue ribbons=x+3=9
No. Of yellow ribbons=x+7=13
If a dime equals 10¢, and 10 dimes equals 100¢ (or $1) you need to divide.
$90.10/10¢=90.1 dimes you need I think.
Hope this helps
