Answer:
x = 1, y = 60
Step-by-step explanation:
Value of new-releases (x) = $20 each
Value of classic (y) = $8 each
Total budget = $500
Equation : 20x + 8y = 500
The librarian wants to purchase maximum DVDs. She can get more DVDs of classic movies for $8 as they are less costly.
Lets assume the librarian buys at least one new-release DVD.
x=1
20x + 8y = 500
8y + 20(1) = 500
y = 60
<em>Therefore, in a budget of $500, the librarian can purchase 60 classic movies and 1 new-release.</em>

Elsa's answer is incorrect since there is a solution of the given equation. In the given logarithmic problem, we need to simplify the problem by transposing log2(3x+5) in the opposite side. The equation will now be log2x-log2(3x+5)=4. Using properties of logarithm, we further simplify the problem into a new form log (2x/6x+10)=4. Then transform the equation into base form 10^4=(2x/6x+10) and proceed in solving for x value which is equal to 1.667.
I would choose B. because first of all negative -2 can't be equal to -4 (but that's just my opinion)
So basically ...
You convert the rupees in paisas. One rupee is equal to one hundred paisas, so ...
280 × 100 = 28,000
And then we divide,
28,000 ÷ 14 = 2000
