So if 16 ounces is one pound, 8 ounces is half a pound, If you buy a half pound at $17.98 per pound you multiply 17.98 by .5

So your answer is $8.99

In a theater, there are 4 long rows of chairs,each with an equal number of chairs There are 5 ahort rows of chairs,each with an
Hoochie [10]
<span>There are 4 long rows and 5 short rows in the theater. x represents the number of chairs in each long row and y represents the number of chairs in each short row.

So, total number of chairs in 4 long rows= 4x
Total number of chairs in 5 short rows = 5y
Total number of chairs in the theater on a normal day = 4x + 5y

When 2 chairs are added to each long row, the number of chairs will change to (x+2).
So, total number of chairs in 4 long rows will be = 4(x+2)

When 3 chairs are added to each short row, the number of chairs will change to (y+3)
So, total number of chairs in 5 short rows will be = 5(y+3)

Thus, total number of chairs in the theater in rush day = 4(x+2) + 5(y+3)
= 4x + 8 + 5y + 15
= 4x + 5y + 23

Thus we can say the number of chairs increase by 23 as compared to a normal day.

Marty made a $220 bank deposit using $10 bills and $5 bills. She gave the teller a total of 38 bills, how many $5 bills were in
Luda [366]

ANSWER: 32 five-dollar bills

======

EXPLANATION:

Let x be number of $5 bills

Let y be number of $10 bills

Since we have total of 38 bills, we must have the sum of x and y be 38

x + y = 38 (I)

Since the total amount deposited is $220, we must have the sum of 5x and 10y be 220 (x and y are just the "number of" their respective bills, so we multiply them by their value to get the total value):

5x + 10y = 220 (II)

System of equations:

\left\{ \begin{aligned} x + y &= 38 && \text{(I)} \\ 5x + 10y &= 220 && \text{(II)} \end{aligned} \right.

Divide both sides of equation (II) by 5 so our numbers become smaller

\left\{ \begin{aligned} x + y &= 38 && \text{(I)} \\ x + 2y &= 44 && \text{(II)} \end{aligned} \right.

Rearrange (I) to solve for y so that we can substitute into (II)

\begin{aligned} x + y &= 38 && \text{(I)} \\ y &= 38 - x \end{aligned}

Substituting this into equation (II) for the y:

\begin{aligned} x + 2y &= 44 && \text{(II)} \\ x + 2(38 - x) &= 44\\ x + 76 - 2x &= 44 \\ -x &= -32 \\ x &= 32 \end{aligned}

We have 32 five-dollar bills

======

If we want to finish off the question, use y = 38 - x to figure out number of $10 bills

y = 38 - 32 = 6

32 five-dollar bills and 6 ten-dollar bills

How would you solve for the question below???<br> step by step please and thanks.
Airida [17]

Combine the two equations in the right amounts to eliminate y :

-2 (2x + 3y) + (3x + 6y) = -2 (17) + 30

-4x - 6y + 3x + 6y = -34 + 30

-x = -4

x = 4

Solve for y :

2x + 3y = 17

8 + 3y = 17

3y = 9

y = 3
