0.75x + 0.5y = 25.....and she doesn't want any licorice....so x = 0
0.75(0) + 0.5y = 25
0.5y = 25
y = 25/0.5
y = 50....she can get 50 cherry candies

The correct answer among the choices provided is option B. She can buy 50 cherry candies if she wishes to spend her entire money on it. The first step to find the answer is to substitute the x value with zero. Then the equation that is used to arrive at the answer is 0.5y =25.

Make a down payment of $1500 and finance the rest of $20000 at 1.9% interest rate, making equal monthly payments for 5 years.
REY [17]
We know that we have to m<span>ake a down payment of $1500 and finance the rest of $20000 at a 1.9% interest rate, making equal monthly payments for 5 years. Our first step to solve this problem would be to convert 5 years into months. 

1 year = 12 months 

12 * 5 = 60 months 

Therefore, in 5 years there are 60 months. 

Now lets solve this problem step by step. 

Subtract the down payment from $20,000

</span>$20000-$1500=$18500

Multiply the remaining number by the interest rate. 

$18500 *1.9 = $35150 

Divide 35150 by number of months in 5 years (60)

$35150 / 60 = $585 

<span>Therefore, you have to pay $585 per month. </span>
