9.75 * 1.2 = 11.7
24.5 * .8 = 19.6

11.7+19.6= 31.3 minutes

hope this helped :)

One day a store sold 21 sweatshirts. white ones cost $9.95 and yellow ones cost $ 11.50. in all, $235.30 worth of sweatshirts

FromTheMoon [43]

For this problem you have yo set up two equations.

White shirts = w Yellow shirts = y

1st: w + y = 21
2nd: 9.95w + 11.50y = 235.30

Now we're going to do system of equations using substitution.

If w + y = 21, then y = 21 - w
If y = 21 - w, then you can substitute this in the second equation for y.

9.95w + 11.50(21 - w) = 235.30
9.95w + 241.5 - 11.50w = 235.30
-1.55w + 241.5 = 235.30
-1.55w = -6.2
w = 4, so 4 whites shirt were sold.

Now I'm finding out how many yellow shirts were sold using one of the two equations at the top.

w + y = 21
4 + y = 21
y = 17

So 17 yellow shirts were sold and 4 white shirts were sold.

3.) mr. smith’s class sold wrapping paper for $3.50 each and mr. davis’ class sold magazines for $2.75 each. together, the class

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

The number of wrapping paper sold was 32 and the number of magazines sold was 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of wrapping paper sold

y ----> the number of magazines sold

we know that

The classes sold 72 items

so

$x+y=72$ ----> equation A

The classes earned $222 for their school

so

$3.50x+2.75y=222$ ----> equation B

Solve the system of equations by graphing

Remember that the solution of the system of equations is the intersection point both graphs

using a graphing tool

The solution is (32,40)

see the attached figure

therefore

The number of wrapping paper sold was 32 and the number of magazines sold was 40
