Answer:
25
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to set up a system of equations, then solve for the number of board markers.
Let r represent red pens, let b represent board markers.
She has 41 items, so our first equation is r+b=41.
The total cost is $46.30, so our second equation is .55r+1.5b=46.3.
r+b=41
.55r+1.5b=46.3
Let's use substitution.
r+b=41
r=41-b
.55r+1.5b=46.3
.55(41-b)+1.5b=46.3
22.55-.55b+1.5b=46.3
22.55+.95b=46.3
.95b=23.75
b=25
He bought 25 board markers.
We don't know what the question is.
It could be "What is the selling price ?"
If that's the question, then . . .
Since the store marks up their cost by 60% before they sell
the thing, the price they sell it for is
(1.60 of their cost).
You know their cost. The selling price is (1.60 x $80) .
<span>A complex number is a number of the form a + bi, where i = and a and b are real numbers. For example, 5 + 3i, - + 4i, 4.2 - 12i, and - - i are all complex numbers. a is called the real part of the complex number and bi is called the imaginary part of the complex number.</span>
