Julio bought 4 pencils and 3 erasers for $0.37 and David paid $0.33 for 3 pencils and 4 erasers. What is the cost of one pencil?

grigory [225]

cost of pencil = x = 0.07

and cost of eraser = y = 0.03

Step-by-step explanation:

let cost of pencil = x

and cost of eraser = y

So, we have equations:

$4x+3y=0.37\\3x+4y=0.33$

Solving both equations to find value of x and y

Let:

$4x+3y=0.37\,\,\,eq(1)\\3x+4y=0.33\,\,\,eq(2)$

Multiply eq(1) with 4 and eq(2) with 3 and subtract

$16x+12y=1.48\\9x+12y=0.99\\-\,\,\,-\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,-\\--------\\7x=0.49\\x=0.07$

Putting value of x in equation 1:

$4x+3y=0.37\\4(0.07)+3y=0.37\\0.28+3y=0.37\\3y=0.37-0.28\\3y=0.09\\y=0.03$

So, x= 0.07 and y = 0.03

cost of pencil = x = 0.07

and cost of eraser = y = 0.03

Five less than twice the value of a number is equal to three times the quantity of

MissTica

Answer:

These types of questions are not daunting if you break it down. First look at "Five less than twice the value of a number."

"Twice the value of a number" is simply 2x.

"Five less" is simply -5, so for the first part we have (2x-5)

Next, analyze the second part. "Three times the quantity of four more than one half the number."

Looking at "Three times the quantity" simply means "3 times something".

"the quantity of four more than one half the number" is 4 + "one half the number" or 4 + (1/2)x.

So the second part is simply 3(4+x/2).

Finally we finish the entire equation, (2x-5) = 3(4+x/2) then solve for x.

2x-5 = 12 + (3/2)x

2x-(3/2)x = 17

x/2 = 17

x=34

Checking the left side, (2x-5) = 2(34) - 5 = 63.

Checking the right side, 3(4+(34/2)) = 3(4+17) = 3(21) = 63.

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

The probability that both of Eduardo’s partners for the group project will be girls is

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A hat contains slips of paper with the names of the 26 other students in Eduardo’s class on them, 10 of whom are boys. To determine his partners for the group project, Eduardo has to pull two names out of the hat without replacing them.

To find : What is the probability that both of Eduardo’s partners for the group project will be girls?

Solution :

Total number of students = 26

Number of boys = 10

Number of girls = 26-10=16

Eduardo has to pull two names out of the hat without replacing them.

For the first hat,

Favorable outcome of getting girl = 16

Total number of outcome = 26

For the second hat, without replacement

Favorable outcome of getting another girl = 15

Total number of outcome = 25

The probability that both of Eduardo’s partners for the group project will be girls is
