Sagot :
The numbers of large bowl sold at the fair is 20
Data;
- Total bowl sold = 32
- Total amount made = $916
- Cost of small ceramic bowl = $18
- Cost large bowl = $35
System of Equation
To solve this problem, we need to write system of equations for this.
Let x represent the numbers of small ceramic bowl
let y represent the numbers of large ceramic bowl
[tex]x+y=32...eq (i)\\18x + 35y = 916 ...eq(ii)[/tex]
From equation (i), let's make x the subject of formula
[tex]x + y = 32\\x = 32 - y...eq(iii)[/tex]
Let's substitute equation (iii) into equation (ii)
[tex]18x+35y = 916\\x = 32 - y\\18(32 -y) + 35y = 916\\576- 18y + 35y = 916\\17y = 916 - 576\\17y = 340\\\frac{17y}{17} = \frac{340}{17}\\ y = 20[/tex]
The numbers of large bowl sold at the fair is 20
