Penelope’s printing press promptly sails 5-cent pencils and 10-cent pens to the public. it sold 1000 writing utensils and took in $74.50 in sales. how many pens and how many pencils did penelope’s printing press sell?

Number of pens and pencils sold are 490 and 510 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, number of pens = x and the number of pencils = y.

It is given that,

Cost of one pen = 10 cents = 0.1 dollar

Cost of one pencil = 5 cents = 0.05 dollar

As, the total number of writing utensils sold are 100. So, we have,

Also, the total sales is $74.50 gives,

Thus, the system of equations is,

x + y = 1000 .................................... (1)

0.1x + 0.05y = 74.50 .....................(2)

Multiply (1) by 0.1 and subtract both the equations, we get,

0.05y = 25.5 i.e. y= 510

So, x= 1000- 510 i.e. x= 490.

So, the number of pens and pencils sold are 490 and 510 respectively.

i think it's ф or x=6,-6

step-by-step explanation:

-x^2=-36

x^2=-36

ф

or

if you mean by : -(x^2)=-36

it'll be: x^2=36

x=6,x=-6

hope it'll ! have a good day!

you for asking!

step-by-step explanation:

we can analyze the pattern at which the terms increase. let us denote , , , so that we can call

note the following:

the pattern: to get the next term value, we just add the next term number (e.g. 1st, 2nd, to the previous term value (term values are the given numbers in the question, 1, 3, 6, 10, 15,

from , to get to , we add

from , to get to , we add

etc.

we need to form a recursive formula, a formula that has the next term as a function of the previous term. so a possible recursive formula can be
