Answer:

Kristen bought 2 fancy shirts and 5 plain t-shirts.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Kristen spent $131 on 7 shirts.

Cost of one fancy shirt = $28

Cost of one plain t-shirt = $15

Let,

x be the number of fancy shirts

y be the number of plain t-shirts

x+y = 7       Eqn 1

28x+15y=131    Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 15

15(x+y=7)

15x+15y=105    Eqn 3

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2

(28x+15y)-(15x+15y)=131-105

28x+15y-15x+15y=26

13x=26

Dividing both sides by 13

\frac{13x}{13}=\frac{26}{13}\\x=2

Putting x=2 in Eqn 1

2+y=7

y=7-2

y=5

Hence,

Kristen bought 2 fancy shirts and 5 plain t-shirts.

You have $400,000.00 saved in a retirement account paying 4% interest compounded monthly and are ready to start your retirement.
UNO [17]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  $2,104.33 at the beginning of the month, or

  $2,111.35 at the end of the month

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount you can withdraw at the end of the month is given by the annuity formula ...

  A = P(r/12)/(1 -(1 +r/12)^(-12t))

where principal P is earning annual rate r for t years

  A = $400,000(0.04/12)/(1 -(1 +0.04/12)^(-12·25)) ≈ $2,111.35

If the withdrawal is at the beginning of the month, then the amount is less by a factor of (1+0.04/12) ≈ 1.003333. It will be $2,104.33.

A store sold 40 more basketballs than soccer balls last month.
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

soccer balls = 80

basketballs = 120

Step-by-step explanation:

let S = number of soccer balls sold

let B = number of basketballs sold

If the store sold 40 more basketballs than soccer balls, then

B = S + 40

If the store sold $4800 worth of soccer and basketballs last month at a cost of $33 for a soccer ball and $18 for a basketball, then:

33S + 18B = 4800

Substitute the first equation B = S + 40 into the second equation and solve for S:

33S + 18(S + 40) = 4800

33S + 18S + 720 = 4800

51S + 720 = 4800

51S = 4080

S = 80

Substitute S = 80 into B = S + 40 to find B:

B = 80 + 40 = 120
