While shopping, Cori spent three times as much as Ann. If they spent a total of $124, how much did each person spend?

1 answer:

4 0

Ann-x
Cori-3x

3x+x=124

4x=124
divide both sides by 4

x=31 now plug it in and you get

Ann-31
Cori-31×3=93

Ann spent 31$
Cori spent 93$

Answer:

$\large\boxed{b\geq3\to b\in[3,\ \infty)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$2(b-3)\geq3(3-b)\qquad\text{use the distributive property:}\ a(b+c)=ab+ac\\\\(2)(b)+(2)(-3)\geq(3)(3)+(3)(-b)\\\\2b-6\geq9-3b\qquad\text{add 6 to both sides}\\\\2b-6+6\geq9+6-3b\\\\2b\geq15-3b\qquad\text{add}\ 3b\ \text{to both sides}\\\\2b+3b\geq15-3b+3b\\\\5b\geq15\qquad\text{divide both sides by 5}\\\\\dfrac{5b}{5}\geq\dfrac{15}{5}\\\\b\geq3$
