Answer:
New cars sold = 20,
Used cars sold = 25
Cars serviced = 290
Step-by-step explanation:
In a month they sold fifteen less used cars than twice the number of new cars.
Lets say 'x' number of new cars were sold, then:
The number of used car sold is:
In the same month they serviced fifty more than twelve times the number of new cars sold. So the number of cars serviced is:
Altogether they sold or serviced 335 cars, so the sum of all the cars sold and serviced should be 335:
Solving for 'x' we get:
Therefore, the number of new cars sold in that month is 20.
Number of used car sold
Number of cars serviced
We can also cross check by summing them up:
If Joe collected 94 stamps which are in April May and June, we could make an equation like this: A + M + J = All stamps
Plug in the values:
Isolate J:
Combine like terms:
He collected 33 stamps in June.
