Answer:

The number sold at $12.50 is  25

The number sold at $9.50 is 62

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write a system of equations:

x 12.50 + y 9.50=901.50

x+y= 87

Where

x= number of pottery pieces sold

y= number of pottery pieces sold at a decreased price  

Multiplying the second equation by 9.50, and subtracting the second equation to the first equation:

12.50 x + 9.50y = 901.50

-

9.50 x+ 9.50 y= 826.5

__________________

3 x = 75

Solving for x

x =75/3

x = 25

Replacing x=25 on any equation:

x+y= 87

25+y =87

y=87-25

y= 62

Miles is saving to buy a new car. He currently has $600 in his savings account. He plans on depositing $200 a month until he has
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

7 months

Step-by-step explanation:

He plans on depositing $200 every month into the savings account that already has $600 in it.

We can represent the amount of money he will have after a certain number of months (x) as:

A = 600 + 200x

He needs to save $2000. Therefore, to find the months he needs to save, we need to find x when A is $2000:

2000 = 600 + 200x

200x = 2000 - 600

200x = 1400

x = 1400/200 = 7 months

He needs to save for 7 months.
