Answer:

x + y = 32 (1)

3x + 4y = 120 (2)

x = 8; y = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Total students = 120

Number of groups = 32

If the number of three person groups = x

Number of four person groups = y

write a system of equations that models this situation

x + y = 32 (1)

3x + 4y = 120 (2)

From (1)

x = 32 - y

Substitute x = 32 - y into (2)

3(32 - y) + 4y = 120

96 - 3y + 4y = 120

- 3y + 4y = 120 - 96

y = 24

Substitute y = 24 into (1)

x + y = 32

x + 24 = 32

x = 32 - 24

x = 8

x = 8; y = 24

Jones Co. pays its employees on a graduated commission scale: 2% on first $30,000; 3% on sales from $30,000 to $60,000; and 5% o
Gnesinka [82]
We need to separate his total earnings out into the different categories:

Category 1 (2%): 30,000
Category 2 (3%): 60,000-30,000 = 30,000
Category 3 (5%): 92,000-60,000 = 32,000

To calculate a percentage we multiply by that percentage divided by 100.
Now we can work out the commissions:
1) 30,000*0.02 = $600
2) 30,000*0.03 = $900
3) 32,000*0.05 = $1600

Adding these together, we get $3100

Reptile [31]

y = 2 {x}^{2}  - 5x - 3

2 {x}^{2}  - 5x - 3 = 0

(2x + 1)(x - 3)  = 0

x =  -  \frac{1}{2}
