The way she has the equation set up, she is only selling 1 bottle of tea and x bottles of water. So, she basically forgot to put the variable in that represents the number of bottles of tea sold
the way it should be : x = # of bottles of water, and y = # of bottles of tea
1.25x + 1.49y = 100
Answer:
x= 15
Step-by-step explanation:
4x+15=75
4x = 60
x = 15
Distribute on the left side
7.4a+22.2=3.2a+43.2
Subtract 3.2a from both sides
4.2a+22.2=43.2
Subtract 22.2 from both sides
4.2a=21
Divide both sides by 4.2
a=5
42 is 21% of 200. This is because 200*0.21 = 42.
