Construct an equation in which s is the number of tons of sugar to be transported 4500 + 150.25s = 3696 + 200.5s Solve for s 4500 - 3696 = 200.5s - 150.25s 804 = 50.25s s = 804/50.25 = 16 tons of sugar The cost is found by plugging this value into either side of the original equation; it is $6904.

set equal to each other
5000/8.5x+30000=15000/5.5x+5000
minus 5000 both sides
5000/8.5x+25000=15000/5.5x
times both sides by (8.5)(5.5)
(5.5)(5000)x+(8.5)(5.5)(25000)=(8.5)(15000)x
27500x+1168750=127500x
minus 27500x from both sides
1168750=100000x
divide both sides by 100000
x=11.6875
sub
y=(5000/8.5)(11.6875)+30000
y=6875+30000
y=36875
(x,y)
(11.6875,36875)
