A school bought pens, each costing $1, and pencils, each costing $0.5. The cost of the whole purchase was $220. How many pens an
Mkey [24]

Answer:

  • <u>120 pens and 200 pencils.</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

You can set a system of two equations.

<u>1. Variables</u>

<u />

  • x: number of pens
  • y: number of pencils

<u>2. Cost</u>

  • <em>each pen costs</em> $1, then x pens costs: x
  • <em>each pencil costs</em> $0.5, then y pencil costs: 0.5y

  • Then, the total cost is: x + 0.5y

  • The cost of the whole purchase was $ 220, then the first equation is:

          x + 0.5y = 220 ↔ equation (1)

<u>3. </u><em><u>There were 80 more pencils than pens</u></em>

Then:

  pencils  =      80   +   pens

       ↓                               ↓

       y        =      80   +      x        ↔ equation (2)

<u>4. Solve the system</u>

i) Substitute the equation (2) into the equation (1):

  • x + 0.5(80 + x) = 220

ii) Solve

  • x + 40 + 0.5x = 220
  • 1.5x = 180
  • x = 180/1.5
  • x = 120 pens

iii) Substitute x = 120 into the equation (2)

  • y = 80 + 120
  • y = 200 pencils

Solution: 120 pens and 200 pencils ← answer

Saige's spaceship traveled 588 588588 kilometers ( km ) (km)left parenthesis, start text, k, m, end text, right parenthesis in 6
pshichka [43]

Answer:

The first ship has the same speed as Saige's ship while the second and third do not have the same speed.

Step-by-step explanation:

d = Distance traveled by Saige's spaceship = 588 km

t = Time taken = 60 seconds

Speed is given by

s=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{588}{60}\\\Rightarrow s=9.8\ \text{km/s}

The other ships

s=\dfrac{441}{45}=9.8\ \text{km/s}

s=\dfrac{215}{25}=8.6\ \text{km/s}

s=\dfrac{649}{110}=5.9\ \text{km/s}

So, the first ship has the same speed as Saige's ship while the second and third do not have the same speed.
