A business with two locations buys seven large
omeli [17]

Answer: price of a large van = $35000

price of a small van = $30000

Explanation:

Let the price of a large van = x

Let the price of a small van = y

Since A receives 5 large vans and 2 small vans for a total cost of $235,000. Location B receives 2 large vans and 3

small vans for a total cost of $160,000. This can be written as:

5x + 2y = 235000 ........ i

2x + 3y = 160000 ........ ii

Multiply equation i by 2

Multiply equation ii by 5

10x + 4y = 470000 ..... iii

10x + 15y = 800000 ..... iv

Subtract iii from iv

11y = 330,000

y = 330000/11.

y = 30,000

From equation I,

5x + 2y = 235000

5x + 2(30000) = 235000

5x + 60000 = 235000

5x = 235000 - 60000

5x = 175000

x = 175000 / 5

x = 35000

Therefore, price of a large van = 35000

price of a small van = 30000

King wrote “Letter from Birmingham Jail” in response to what?
andrezito [222]
The Letter from Birmingham Jail, also known as the Letter from Birmingham City Jail and The Negro Is Your Brother, is an open letter written on April 16, 1963, by Martin Luther King Jr. The letter defends the strategy of nonviolent resistance to racism. It says that people have a moral responsibility to break unjust laws and to take direct action rather than waiting potentially forever for justice to come through the courts. Responding to being referred to as an "outsider," King writes, "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere".
