Problem 8

Mathematics
1 answer:
SpyIntel [72]2 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

1. x represent the copybook while y represent the pen that is bought.

2. 2x + 3y = 9000 means that in order to buy 2 copybooks and 3 pen you have to pay 9000 LL.

3. Solve for the price of x and y

2x + 3y = 9000 (1)
4x + 2y = 8000 (2)

Multiply (1) by -2:

-2(2x + 3y = 9000)
4x + 2y = 8000
——————————
-4x - 6y = -18000
4x + 2y = 8000
—————————
-4y = -10000
y = -10000/-4
y = 2500

Substitute y value into (2):

4x + 2(2500) = 8000
4x + 5000 = 8000
4x = 3000
x = 3000/4
x = 750

Therefore, 1 copy book = 750LL and 1 pen = 2500 LL

Bob and mark talk about their families. Bob says he has 3 kids, the product of their ages is 72. He gives another clue: the sum
taurus [48]
I can only give possible combinations of the ages. This is because only the product is given. Had the sum of all ages been given, possible combinations would boil down into 1 combination.

3 kids with a youngest. This means that the ages are not the same.
We do prime factorization to get the age combination.

72 ÷ 2 = 36
36 ÷ 2 = 18
18 ÷ 2 =   9
  9 ÷ 3 =   3
  3 ÷ 3 =   1

1 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 = 72

Possible combination with no repeating number.

1 x 8 x 9 = 72
2 x 4 x 9 = 72
4 x 6 x 3 = 72
1 x 6 x 12 = 72
