Answer:

a. Required system of equations is:

c+p = 10

5c+4p = 46

b. 6 cakes were sold

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the number of pies and c be the number of cakes.

Then according to given statement " the store sold 10 baked goods"

$c+p = 10\ \ \ Eqn\ 1$

And

"A cake costs $5 and a pie costs $4"

$5c+4p = 46\ \ \ \ Eqn\ 2$

Using equation 1,

$c=10-p$

Putting this value of c in equation 2:

$5(10-p)+4p = 46\\50-5p+4p = 46\\-p = 46-50\\-p = -4\\p = 4$

Putting p = 4 in equation 1

$c+4 = 10\\c = 10-4\\c =6$

Hence,

a. Required system of equations is:

c+p = 10

5c+4p = 46

b. 6 cakes were sold

Answer:

$95.5090 must be deposited monthly

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given:

The annual interest rate (r) = 4.2% = 0.042

Let assume that an amount Y is deposited, then after one month, it will increase to:

$Y ( 1+ \dfrac{0.042}{12})$

The total amount after 4 years will be:

$= Y ( 1+ \dfrac{0.042}{12})^{48}+Y ( 1+ \dfrac{0.042}{12})^{47} +Y ( 1+ \dfrac{0.042}{12})^{46} +...+ Y ( 1+ \dfrac{0.042}{12})$

$= Y ( 1.0035)^{48}+Y ( 1.0035)^{47} +Y( 1.0035)^{46} +...+ Y( 1.0035)$

Using the sum of a geometric progression:

$= Y (1.0035) \dfrac{ (1.0035^{48}-1)}{(1.0035-1)}$

$= Y (1.0035) \dfrac{ (1.0035^{48}-1)}{0.0035}$

The above amount is then equal to $5000

i.e

$= Y (1.0035) \dfrac{ (1.0035^{48}-1)}{0.0035} = 5000$

$Y = \dfrac{5000\times 0.0035}{(1.0035)(1.0035^{48}-1)} \\ \\ \mathbf{Y = \$95.5090}$
