A store sells packages of pencils.which package offers the best unit price

1 answer:

7 0

The details of the packages are not posted, however I can tell you how to find the answer.

First determine how many pencils are in each pack.
Then divide the price of the pack by the number of pencils to find out which pack has the least cost per pencil. To put this in equation form:
$\frac{Cost}{Pencils}$

Whichever pack has the least cost per pencil is the one that is the best priced.

Solve the system of equations by the addition method.<br> 1 - 3x = -5y - 8<br> 6x<br> 3y = -5

Advocard [28]

$-3x = -5y -8~~~....(i) \\\\6x -3y = -5 ~~......(ii)\\\\\text{Multiply equation (i) by 2 and do (i) + (ii):}\\\\2 \cdot (-3x) + 6x -3y = 2(-5y-8) + (-5)\\\\\implies -6x +6x -3y = -10y -16 -5 \\\\\implies -3y = -10y -21\\\\\implies -3y +10y =-21\\\\\implies 7y = -21 \\\\\implies y = -\dfrac{21} 7 = -3\\\\\text{Substitute}~y =-3~ \text{in equation (ii):} \\\\6x - 3(-3) = -5\\\\\implies 6x +9 = -5\\\\\implies 6x = -5 -9 = -14\\\\\implies x = -\dfrac{14}6 = - \dfrac{7}3\\$

$\text{Hence}~ (x,y) = \left(-\dfrac 73, -3 \right)$
