Let x be the cost of 1 pen
then cost of 1 notebook = x + 8.20
Let y be the number of pens Tan buys
then number of notebooks Tan buys = y/4
She spent $26 more on books than on pens which means
Cost of notebooks - Cost of pens = 26
(x + 8.20) * y/4 - xy = 26
Sinplifying it
(xy + 8.20y)/4 - xy = 26
(xy + 8.20y - 4xy)/4 = 26
8.20y - 3xy = 104
She spent $394 which means
Cost of notebooks + Cost of pens = 394
(x + 8.20) * y/4 + xy = 394
Simplifying it
(xy + 8.20y)/4 + xy = 394
(xy + 8.20y + 4xy)/4 = 394
8.20y + 5xy = 1576
Now, we have two equations,
(1) 8.20y - 3xy = 104
(2) 8.20y + 5xy = 1576
Now we need to find a third equation with either x or y as the subject of any of both the previous equations.
Let's make y the subject of (2) equation
8.20y + 5xy = 1576
y(8.20 + 5X) = 1576
(3) y = 1576/(8.20 + 5x)
Let's substitute the new value of y from (3) into (1) because we rearranged (2) to from (3)
8.20y - 3xy = 104
y(8.20 - 3x) = 104
y = 104/(8.20 - 3x)
1576/(8.20 + 5x) = 104/(8.20 - 3x)
1576 * (8.20 - 3x) = 104 * (8.20 + 5x)
12923.2 - 4728x = 852.8 + 520x
12923.2 - 852.8 = 4728x + 520x
12070.4 = 5248x
12070.4/5248 = x
x = 2.3
Now find the value of y by substituting the value of x in either equation, preferably (3)
y = 1576/(8.20 + 5x)
y = 1576/(8.20 + 5 * (2.3))
y = 80
Therefore cost of 1 notebook = x + 8.20 = 2.3 + 8.20 = $10.50

Answer:
About 1/4 scored higher and 3/4 scored lower
Step-by-step explanation:
84 is on the right side line
Each line represents 25 % of the score
It is 75 percent ( 3 lines) of the way
She scored higher than 75% of the students and lower than 25% of the students
About 1/4 scored higher and 3/4 scored lower

Answer:
714
Step-by-step explanation:
So lets go over what we know.
The bus only goes for 6 hours each day.
So lets just think of a full day as 6 hours.
Each day(6 hours), 4284 passangers ride the bus.
To find passangers per hour, we must divide the total passangers by the total hours.
This is 4284(total passangers) divided by 6(total hours):
4284/6
=
714
So each hour, there are 714 passangers.
Hope this helps!
