Answer: price of a large van = $35000

price of a small van = $30000

Explanation:

Let the price of a large van = x

Let the price of a small van = y

Since A receives 5 large vans and 2 small vans for a total cost of $235,000. Location B receives 2 large vans and 3

small vans for a total cost of $160,000. This can be written as:

5x + 2y = 235000 ........ i

2x + 3y = 160000 ........ ii

Multiply equation i by 2

Multiply equation ii by 5

10x + 4y = 470000 ..... iii

10x + 15y = 800000 ..... iv

Subtract iii from iv

11y = 330,000

y = 330000/11.

y = 30,000

From equation I,

5x + 2y = 235000

5x + 2(30000) = 235000

5x + 60000 = 235000

5x = 235000 - 60000

5x = 175000

x = 175000 / 5

x = 35000

Therefore, price of a large van = 35000

price of a small van = 30000

Answer:

Based on word choice, Giblin feels:

B. that it was worthwhile.

Explanation:

We can easily eliminate options A and C, since there is nothing conveying a negative connotation in the excerpt. We are left with options B and D.

Let's take a look at option D first. It says Giblin thinks the process of obtaining copies of the stone was amazing. However, that is not what the word choice conveys. Had there been words such as "fantastic" or "incredible" in the excerpt, this option would have made sense. But that is not the case.

<u>Option B is the only correct one. The excerpt uses words such as "fortunately", "good", and "clear". Those words convey the idea that the process the French used was worthwhile. It not only worked, but worked well, effectively.</u>

Phoenix [80]

Answer: 232 gold plates

Explanation:

Since Sara bought 4 boxes with 14 orange plates in each box, the total number of orange plates would be:

= 4 × 14

= 56 orange plates

Since there are 5 boxes with 12 silver plates in each box. The total number of silver plates would be:

= 5 × 12

= 60 silver plates

Since the remaining are good plates and she bought 348 plates in total, the number of gold plates would be:

= 348 - (56 + 60)

= 348 - 116

= 232 gold plates
