Answer:

a) \left \{ {{8x+218=y} \atop {5x+521=y}} \right.,   b) $101

Step-by-step explanation:

Hermes: 8 envelopes, $218

Apollo: 5 envelopes, $521

If x is the amount in each envelope, H is the amount Hemes has and A is the amount Apollo has, this would be a possible system of equations.

\left \{ {{8x + 218 = H} \atop {5x +521 = A}} \right.

If Apollo and Hermes both had the same amount of total money, A and H could equal y

\left \{ {{8x+218=y} \atop {5x+521=y}} \right.

We want to find the amount in each envelope (x), so we can substitute y in the first equation for y in the second equation:

8x+218=5x+521

Subtract 5x from both sides

3x+218=521

Subtract 218 from both sides

3x=303

Divide both sides by 3

x=101

So there would have to be $101 in both envelopes for Apollo and Hermes to have the same amount of total money.

ipn [44]

Answer:

Mitchell needs to sell 120 stoves for the options to be equal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Company A gives Mitchell $12000 salary plus $150 commission per stove selling and Company B is offering Mitchell $24000 salary plus $50 commission per stove selling.

So, if Mitchell sells x number of stoves such that both the plans become equal, then we can write  

12000 + 150x = 24000 + 50x

⇒ 100x = 12000

⇒ x = 120

Therefore, Mitchell needs to sell 120 stoves for the options to be equal. (Answer)
