$161.50
Step-by-step explanation:
4.25% of $3800 is $161.50
Answer:
1 and 2/15
Step-by-step explanation:
Let c and n represent the numbers of pencil and pen boxes, respectively
.. 3c +2n = 6.00
.. 2c +4n = 8.00
You can halve the second equation and subtract it from the first to get
.. (3c +2n) -(c +2n) = 6.00 -4.00
.. 2c = 2.00
.. c = 1.00
Then
.. 1.00 +2n = 4.00 . . . . . half the original second equation with c filled n
.. 2n = 3.00
.. n = 1.50
A box of pencils costs $1.00; a box of pens costs $1.50.
