Hi,
x + y = 350 (equation 1)
3x + 2y = 950 (equation 2)
Use Substitution Method
Isolate variable x in equation 1
x = 350 – y (equation 3)
Substitute equation 3 into equation 2
3(350 – y) + 2y = 950
1050 – 3y + 2y = 950
3y – 2y = 1050 – 950
y = 100
Substitute y = 100 into equation 1
x + 100 = 350
x = 250
Answer: 250 $3 tickets and 100 $2 tickets were sold.
Answer:
If x varies directly as y, then x=ky. y=5 and x=2.5 are substituted into x=ky to find k.
2.5=5k
k=2.5/5
k=5.
K =5 is substituted in x=ky to find y where x is 10.
x=5y
10=5y
y=10/2
y=2
Round each coin weight to the nearest gram first, penny 3g, nickel 5g, dime 2g, quarter 6g, half dollar 11g. Now add those numbers together as he has one of each coin 3+5+2+6+11=27 grams
Simple interest formula:
I=PRT
I(interest money created in dollars)
P(initial amount of money)
R(interest rate as a decimal)
T(time in years)
I=7000(.07)(6)
I=$2,940
Therefore, the future value of A is $2,940
