X+y=4000....(1)
10x+6y=340*100⇒5x+3y=17000......(2)
(2)- 3*(1)⇒ 2x=5000⇒x=2500,y=4000-2500=1500
Answer:

Explanation:
One of the applications of scientific notation is to make estimations rounding the whole part of the numbers, i.e. the digits before the decimal point, to the nearest integer, and adding the exponents of the powers of base 10.
Here, you must estimate this product of two numbers written is scientific notation:

Then, for an estimation you round 3.21 to 3 and 1.13 to 1, then multiply 3 × 1 = 3. That will be the coefficient of your new power of 10.
The power or exponent will be the sum of the powers of the numbers that are being multiplied, i.e. 3 + 5 = 8.
And the result is 
The unit is meters, so you write your answer as: 
0.51 grams is < 0.482, thus Maurice has more salt.
The information shown here only shows a principal sum, a rate of interest and a period or time. There is no question as to what is needed. But suppose the need is for simple interest, then we calculate using the given information and the formula:
I = PRT
where I is simple interest, P is the principal, R is the rate per year, and T is time
P = 290, T is 6 months which is 0.5 years, R = 12.5 % which is written as 0.125 in decimal fraction.
I = 290 × 0.125 x 0.5 → I = 18.125
Therefore after 6 months , the interest earned will be 18. 125 dollars
