Answer:
Let P represent the number of pies sold and J represent the number of juices sold.
a)
The first equation for the sum of the sales:
P + J = 79
P = 79 - J
Next, for the sum of the amounts earned:
1.65P + 1.36J = 118.17
Substituting P,
1.65 (79 - J) + 1.36J = 118.17
J = 42
Using this value of J,
P = 79 - 42
P = 37
b)
Mr. Sanchez's class earned: 1.65 x 37 = $61.05
Mr. Kelly's class earned: 1.36 x 42 = $57.12
So Mr. Sanchez's class earned more money.
c) Mr. Sanchez's class earned:
61.05 - 57.12
= $3.93 more than Mr. Kelly's class
Step-by-step explanation:

Simple interest,
FV=P(1+ni)
FV=future value=2500
P=present value, invested amount
n=number of years, =3
i=annual interest rate, =0.095
2500=P(1+3(0.095))
Solve for P.
Answer:
20 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us assume that the son's age is x.
Therefore,
2.5x = 55 - 5
