Kering purchased (2x-1) identical pens for cash 180. Naraya purchased (3x+1) identical pencil for cash 200
a) write an expression for the
(i) Price of the pen.
(ii) price of the pencil.
for the pens, 180/(2x-1)
(i) Price of the pen: Let's assume the price of each pen is 'p'. So, the expression for the price of the pen would be:
Price of the pen = (2x - 1) * p
(ii) Price of the pencil: Let's assume the price of each pencil is 'q'. So, the expression for the price of the pencil would be:
Price of the pencil = (3x + 1) * q
To write an expression for the price of the pen, we'll use the information given that Kering purchased (2x-1) identical pens for cash 180.
(i) Price of the pen:
Let's assume the price of each pen is p. Therefore, the expression for the price of the pen would be:
Price of the pen = (2x - 1) * p
To write an expression for the price of the pencil, we'll use the information given that Naraya purchased (3x+1) identical pencils for cash 200.
(ii) Price of the pencil:
Let's assume the price of each pencil is q. Therefore, the expression for the price of the pencil would be:
Price of the pencil = (3x + 1) * q
Note: The expressions for the price of the pen and the price of the pencil are in terms of the variables p and q, respectively.
