Answer:
The sum is -8<em>x</em>^2 - <em>x </em>+ 5
15,000 x .05 = 750
750 + 15,000 = 15,750
$15,750 is the total Robert paid for the used car.
Answer: 19 cupcakes and 37 cookies were sold.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of cupcakes that Jesse sold yesterday.
Let y represent the number of cookies that Jesse sold yesterday.
If he sold 56 cupcakes and cookies combined, it means that
x + y = 56
Each cupcake sold for $1.50 and each cookie sold for $0.25. At the end of the day, Jesse had sold $37.75 worth of cookies and cupcakes. This means that
1.5x + 0.25y = 37.75 - - - - - - - - - - -1
Substituting x = 56 - y into equation 1, it becomes
1.5(56 - y) + 0.25y = 37.75
84 - 1.5y + 0.25y = 37.75
- 1.5y + 0.25y = 37.75 - 84
- 1.25y = - 46.25
y = - 46.25/ - 1.25
y = 37
x = 56 - y = 56 - 37
x = 19
