Answer:
5 weeks
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following information;
- Price of gas in Bakersville as $2.10 per gallon
(increment per week is $0.20)
- Price of gas in Springfield as $2.60 per gallon
(Increment per week as $0.10 )
We are required to determine the number of weeks it will take for the prices to be the same in the two cities.
Assuming it will take n weeks for the prices to be the same, then
New price in Bakersville = $2.10 + $0.20n
New price in Spring field = $2.60 + $0.10n
Thus;
$2.10 + $0.20n = $2.60 + $0.10n
combining the like terms
0.10 n = 0.50
n = 5
= 5 weeks
Therefore, it will take 5 weeks for the prices to be the same both cities
First, let’s all acknowledge that whoever comes up with problems like this WANTS kids to hate math...smh
I’m sure there is a prettier way to solve this, but here’s what I did:
8(2.25) + 3(22.50) =
18 + 67.50 = 85.50 per “set” of balls/jerseys
400/85.50 = 4.678 = number of “sets” he can buy. Round down to 4 so we have room for tax.
85.5 x 4 “sets”= $342
Tax on 342 is 0.06 x 342 = 20.52
$342 + 20.52 = $362.52 spent
Basketballs = 4 sets x 8 balls per set= 32
Jerseys = 4 sets x 3 jerseys per set= 12
32 basketballs, 12 jerseys, $362.52 spent
