oscar bought some markers notebooks and packs of sticky notes for his office he bought the same number of markers as notebooks he bought three more packs of sticky notes than markers and notebooks combined he paid $1.05 for each marker $2.25 for each notebook, and the packs for sticky notes were $1.95. how many of each kind of office supply did oscar buy if he paid $49.05 in all?

Respuesta :

The number of each kind of office supply oscar bought is = markers= (43.2 - 4.2y)/3 notebooks = (43.2-3x)/4.2, sticky notes = [43.2 - 4.2y)/3 + (43.2-3x)/4.2] + 3.

Calculation of total office supply

The number of markers he bought = X

The number of notebooks he bought= y

The number of sticky notes he bought= z= 3 + X+y

The amount he paid for markers = $1.05*X

The amount he paid for notebooks = $2.25*y

The amount he paid for sticky notes= $1.95 (3 + X+y)

The total amount he paid is = $49.05

That is;

$49.05 = $1.05x + $2.25y + $1.95 (3 + X+y)

$49.05 = $1.05x + $2.25y + $5.85 + $1.95x + $1.95y

$49.05 - $5.85 = 3x + 4.2y

$43.2 = 3x + 4.2y

Make X the subject of formula,

3x = 43.2 - 4.2y

X = (43.2 - 4.2y)/3

y= (43.2-3x)/4.2

z = [43.2 - 4.2y)/3 + (43.2-3x)/4.2] + 3
