1488=34F+70T
F=T+30
this is the system of equations heeded o solve this problem. because we are given that both stocks together are equal to $1488. we are also told that here are 34 share of the fast food stock. and there are 70 shares of the toy stock. each share has an unknown value. this is where i get the. 34F and 70T. we are told that one fast food share (F) is equal to $30 more than the toy share (T) so f=t+30.
solve he system of equations. they give you the value of f is t+30. so plug that into the original equation (1488=34F+70T) in placeof F so the new equation is 1488=34(T+30)+70T
combine like terms and solve for T. plug the value of T into the original equation and solve for F. check your work by plugging both of your answers (answer for F and answer for T) into the original equation.

hammer [34]

The new class mean of the given information in percent  = 73%

<h3>What is algebra?</h3>

One of the many branches of mathematics is algebra. Algebra, which is a common thread throughout practically all of mathematics, is broadly defined as the study of mathematical symbols and the rules for manipulating these symbols in formulas.

<h3>According to the information :</h3>

A total of 2160 points would be earned if 30 students obtained an average grade of 72.

= 30 x 72

= 2160

If six students had an average of 78, their total points would be 6 x 78, or 468.

= 6 x 78

= 468

points are the result of adding the points from both groups.

2160 + 468

= 2628

An average of 73 is obtained by dividing 2628 by 36.

It represents a 73% proportion.
