Answer:

There were 240 more credit card sales than cash sales.

Step-by-step explanation:

By using the ratio 8:3 I was able to determine that if there were 144 cash sales that would mean that there would be 384 credit card sales. However, the question asks "How many <u>more</u> credit card sales were there than cash sales?" Meaning that we need to find the difference. 384-144= 240.

This means that there were 240 <u>more</u> credit card sales than cash sales.

Hope this helped! If you have any questions about what I did please comment!

And if this helped please mark brainliest!

Have a great day!!

Let's solve for x ~

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:4x - 16 = 64

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:4(x - 4) = 64

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:(x - 4) = 64 \div 4

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:x - 4 = 16

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:x  = 16 + 4

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:x  =20

ladessa [460]

Answer:

15 tables

Step-by-step explanation:

Chairs = $200

Tables = $600

Maximum items = 39

Minimum sales = $13,000

If 20 chairs are sold, revenue is $4,000. At least $9,000 in additional revenue is required. To earn $9,000, a minimum of 15 tables would need to be sold, which is fine since a maximum of 19 tables is permitted to be sold.

PLZ CAN SOMEONE ANSWER THIS !!
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

(-4,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to find a common multiple to use to add and find the system of equations. We need to eliminate one of the variables in order to solve.

Since 5 * 3 = 15, and 3 * -5 = 15, -15x and 15x will cancel each other out. Therefore x will be eliminated.

Before:

5x + 2y = -16

3x + 7y = 2

After:

15x + 6y = -48   <----------Now we solve for y

-15x + -35y = -10

+----------------------

-29y = -58

-29      -29

y = 2

Now what we do is we choose and equation and solve for x, since it is still unknown. Any equation is fine but I will choose the second one since it has easy numbers.

3x + 7y = 2

3x + 7(2) = 2

3x + 14 = 2

   -14     -14

----------------------

3x = -12

3        3

x = -4

Therefore our final answer is (-4,2)
