Answer: 3000 stamps

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Chris and Josh have 1800 stamps

Josh and Jessica have 2200 stamps

Jessica and Chris have 2000 stamps

Suppose Chris, Josh, and Jessica have x,y, \text{and}\ z stamps

\therefore x+y=1800\quad \ldots(i)\\\Rightarrow y+z=2200\quad \ldots(ii)\\\Rightarrow z+x=2000\quad \ldots(iii)\\\text{Add (i), (ii), and (iii)}\\\Rightarrow 2(x+y+z)=1800+2200+2000\\\Rightarrow x+y+z=3000

Thus, all three have 3000 stamps

The bus fare without a coupon book is $1.50 a coupon book cost $30.00, with the coupon book the fare is reduced $0.50. How many
valentina_108 [34]

Answer: the bus would be used 30 times for the monthly costs to be the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of times in a month for which the bus must be used so the total monthly cost is the same with the book as it is without it.

The bus fare without a coupon book is $1.50. This means that the total monthly cost of using the bus for x times without a coupon book is 1.5x

A coupon book cost $30.00 and with the coupon book, the fare is reduced $0.50. This means that the total monthly cost of using the bus for x times with a coupon book is

0.5x + 30

For the monthly costs to be the same,

1.5x = 0.5x + 30

1.5x - 0.5x = 30

x = 30
