Answer:
<u>The number of pens = 120 and the number of pencils = 200</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of pens x, and the number of pencils is y
the cost of one pen $1, and the cost of one pencil $0.5
The cost of the whole purchase was $220
1 * x + 0.5 * y = 220
x + 0.5 y = 220 ⇒ eq.(1)
there were 80 more pencils than pens
y - x = 80 ⇒ eq.(2)
from eq.(2) x = y - 80
By substitution with x from the last equation at eq.(1)
∴ (y - 80) + 0.5 y = 220
1.5y = 220 + 80 = 300
y = 300/1.5 = 200
x = y - 80 = 200 - 80 = 120
<u>So, the number of pens = 120 and the number of pencils = 200</u>
Answer:
A - one
Step-by-step explanation:
A typical demand curve, in economics, depicts the relationship between price of a commodity on the y-axis, and quantity demanded on the x-axis.
The demand curve obeys the Law of Demand, which states that the higher the price, the lower the quantity demanded of that commodity, and vice versa, all things being equal. Thus, a typical demand curve will slope downwards, from left to the right.
Therefore, line 1 indicates the demand curve.
A and E are corresponding angles so A=E
ANSWER
The correct choice is C.
EXPLANATION
The perimeter of a rectangle is given by;
P=2(w+l)
For the first rectangle, the perimeter is;
P=2(8+4)=24
For the second rectangle, the perimeter is
P=2(8+8)=32
For the third rectangle, the perimeter is
P=2(8+12)=40
The correct choice is C
