Answer:

P + M = 30

700P + 200M = 15000

Number of laser printers = 18

Number of color monitors = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let P = number of laser printers

Let M = number of color monitors

Given total number of boxes = 30

⇒ P + M = 30

Given:

  • $700 = cost of laser printer
  • $200 = cost of color monitor
  • $15000 = total cost of order

⇒ 700P + 200M = 15000

Rewrite P + M = 30 to make P the subject:

⇒ P = 30 - M

Substitute into 700P + 200M = 15000 and solve for M:

⇒ 700(30 - M) + 200M = 15000

⇒ 21000 - 700M + 200M = 15000

⇒ 500M = 6000

⇒ M = 12

Substitute found value for M into P = 30 - M and solve for P:

⇒ P = 30 - 12 = 18

The perimeter of the cover of a math textbook is 34 inches. if the width of the cover is 7 inches, what is the length of the cov
Sauron [17]
The length would be 10 inches.
to find perimeter, you add length+length+width+width.
since both widths and both lengths have to be the same, u add the width 2 times or 7+7=14.
next u subtract 14 from 34 or 34-14=20. 
since u still have 2 lengths that are equal, u divide 20 by 2 or 20/2=10

hope this helps! :)
