Assign variables to you unknowns.
c = $ cars
t = $ trucks
6c + 3t = 4800
8c + t = 4600
use substitution or elimination to solve the system of equations.
using elimination.. multiply second equation by -3 and add to the other to combine equations into one.
6c + 3t = 4800
-3(8c + t = 4600)
---------------------------
-18c + 0 = -9000
c = 9000/18
c = 500 $
use this in one of the equations to find the cost of a truck.
8(500) + t = 4600
4000 + t = 4600
t = 4600 - 4000
t = 600 $
question asks
2(500) + 3(600) =
1000 + 1800 = 2800 $
To find the amount of fabric for one side of the purse you will find the area of the trapezoidal space that is created. The latch is on the top, so the 2 in is not necessary information.
A = 1/2 h(b1 + b2)
1/2 x 13 x (10 + 16)
A = 169 square inches of fabric will be needed.
