I need your help right now with a math problem. It says A new cruise ship line has just launched 3 new ships: the Pacific Paradi

Kobotan [32]

Answer: Caribbean Paradise=196

Pacific Paradise=167

Mediterranean Paradise=653

Let's break it down.

The Caribbean Paradise has 29 more rooms deluxe staterooms than the Pacific Paradise.

Let's make C= Caribbean Paradise and P= pacific Paradise

C=P+29

The Mediterranean Paradise has 15 fewer deluxe staterooms than four times the number of deluxe staterooms on the pacific paradise

M=Mediterranean Paradise

M=(4*P)-15

Find the number of deluxe staterooms for each of the ships if the total number of deluxe staterooms for the three ships is 1016

Okay so C+P+M=1016

So just combine the first two problems with the last

It changes into

(P+29)+P+M=1016

2P +29+M=1016

Then replace M

2P+29+4P-15=1016

Combine like terms

6P+14=1016

Then solve for P

6P+14(-14)=1016(-14)

6P=1002

6P/6=1002/6

P=167

Then plug in P=167 into your first two formulas

C=P+29

C=(167)+29

C=196

M=(4*P)-15

M=(4*167)-15

M=(668)-15

M=653

Melissa, Brian, and shen have a total of $85 in their wallets. Brian has 3 times what Shen has. Shen has $10 less than Melissa.

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Shen has $15, Brian has $45, and Melissa has $25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent how much money Shen has.

Since Brian has 3 times what Shen has, his amount can be represented by 3x.

Since Shen has $10 less than Melissa, Melissa's amount can be represented by x + 10.

Create an equation to represent the situation, and solve for x:

x + 3x + x + 10 = 85

5x + 10 = 85

5x = 75

x = 15

So, Shen has $15 in their wallet.

Find how much Brian has by multiplying this by 3:

15(3) = $45

Find how much Melissa has by adding 10 to this:

15 + 10 = $25

Shen has $15, Brian has $45, and Melissa has $25.
