If there are 4 trucks then the first truck weighs x
then x+2tons
then x+4tons
then x+6tons = 32tons
so 4x+12=32
-12 -12
/4 /4
x=5
so plug it back in
truck 1= 5tons or 10,000lbs
truck 2= 7tons or 14,000lbs
truck 3= 9tons or 18,000lbs
truck 4= 11tons or 22,000lbs
Package A = $276 for 12 tickets (2 x 6) // 276 divided by 12 = $23 per ticket
Package B = $336 for 16 tickets (2 x 8) // 336 divided by 16 = $21 per ticket
$23 - $21 = $2
Package A charges $2 more per ticket.
Use a system of equations
C+P=1132
3P=C
Substitute C in first equation as
3P+P=1132
Simplify
4P=1132
Solve
P=1132/4
P=283
NOW SOLVE FOR C SUBSTITUTING P VALUE IN FIRST EQUATION
C+283=1132
C=1132-283
C=849
Printer = 283$
Computer = 849$
See my steps answer is -12
