Question:
Two brothers gathered their money to buy a gift for their dad. Between them they gathered 864, which amount each contributed if Paco gave 5 pesos for every 7 that Juan gave.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the common factor between each brother = p
Paco gave = 5×common factor = 5p
Juan gave = 7×common factor = 7p
Total money contributed by both brothers = 864
Total money contributed by both brothers = 5p + 7p
5p + 7p = 864
12p = 864
p = 864/12
p = 72
Paco contributed = 5p = 5×72 = 360pesos
Juan contributed = 7p = 7×72 = 504pesos
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Since these lines have the same slope and different y-intercepts, they are parallel lines. As such lines do not intersect, we can say that :
The system has no solutions.
7/8= 0.875
no rounding necessary
