Usimov [2.4K]
For this problem, let x be the number of children and y for adults. Formulate the equations: 1st equation, x + y = 3,200 and 2nd equation 5x + 9y = 24,000. Re-arrange 1st equation into x = 3200 - y. Then, substitute into 2nd equation, 5(3,200-y) + 9y = 24,000. Then, solve for y. The 16,000 - 5y + 9y = 24000. Final answer is, y = 2000 adults went to watch the movie.

1. Kim works as a book keeper and creates invoices for a variety of companies. Help Kim find the total
Zanzabum

This is about calculation of invoice.

<u><em>1) Total for the invoice = $2641.25</em></u>

<u><em>2) Total for the invoice = $30</em></u>

<u><em>3) Total for the invoice = $1925</em></u>

  • 1) 12 cameras for $200 each

Amount for cameras = 12 × 200 = $2400

25 cables with length of 10 ft each cost $1.25

Amount for 10 ft cables = 25 × 1.25 = $31.25

12 ft specialty cables cost $1.75 per foot

10 of these cables will have length =12 × 10 = 120 ft

Amount for 10 of these cables = 1.75 × 120 = $210

Total for the Invoice = $2400 + $31.25 + $210

Total for the invoice = $2641.25

  • 2) 250 yards of rope costs $500.

Thus, price per yard = 500/250 = $2 per yard

For a customer that wants 15 yard;

Total for the invoice = 15 × $2 = $30

  • 3) Dump truck is rented for $275 per hour. And the minimum is 2 hours per day. This means that anything less than 1 hour, the money paid must be money for 2 hours.

Thus;

On monday; 1 hour will cost; 2 × $275 = $550

On Tuesday; 3 hours will cost; 3 × $275 = $825

On wednesday; 2hours will cost; 2 × $275 = $550

Total for the invoice = 550 + 825 + 550 = $1925

It takes 8 minutes for Byron to fill the kiddie pool in the backyard using only a handheld hose. When his younger sister is impa
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Let us say that the procedure of completely filling up the pool with water is called “1 job”. Therefore the rates of the equipment in doing the job would be:

<span>Rate of handheld hose = 1 job / 8 minutes                  ---> 1</span>

<span>Rate of lawn sprinkler = r                                             ---> 2</span>

<span>Rate of the two combines = 1 job/ 5 minutes               ---> 3</span>

So we are to find the equation to use, in this case, we simply have to add equations 1 and 2 to get 3:

1 / 8 + r = 1 / 5

Multiplying both sides by 5:

<span>(5 / 8) + 5 r = 1                                                               ---> ANSWER</span>
