The manager of the video department at a department store plans to purchase a large number of DVDs of a recent movie. One supplier is selling boxes of 20 DVD movies for $240, and a second supplier is selling boxes of 14 DVD movies for $170. Only complete boxes of DVD movies can be purchased. Complete part a) and b) below. a) a) If the manager can purchase boxes of DVD movies from either or both suppliers, determine the maximum number of DVD movies that can be purchased for $415. Indicate how many boxes of 20 and how many boxes of 14 will be purchased.
— box(es) of 20 and — box(es) of 14

b) How much will the DVD movies cost?
They will cost $—

1 box of 20 and 1 box of 14

They will cost $410

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find how many boxes of 20 DVD movies can be bought

415 - 240 = 175

1 box of 20 DVD movies can be sold

2. Find how many boxes of 14 DVD movies can be bought from $175

175 - 170 = 5

1 box of 14 DVD movies can be bought

3. Find the cost

240 + 170 = 410

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions

the least common denominatore of 7 and 2 is 9
