A painter purchased a total of 16 cans of premium paint and primer. Each can of premium paint cost $32.99, and each can of primer cost $19.99. If the painter spent a total of $475.84, how many cans of primer did the painter purchase?

The  number of cans of primer purchased was 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of cans of premium paint purchased

y ---> the  number of cans of primer purchased

we know that

A painter purchased a total of 16 cans of premium paint and primer

so

-----> equation A

The painter spent a total of $475.84

so

----> equation B

Solve the system of equations by graphing

The solution is the intersection point both graphs

The solution is the point (12,4)

see the attached figure

therefore

The  number of cans of primer purchased was 4

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:

x - 3

discussion:

x^2 - 9 = (x-3) (x+3)   so

(x^2-9)/ (x + 3) = x-3

you,

“ a line segment that has the endpoints on the circle and passes through the midpoint is called the diameter. the diameter is twice the size of the radius. a line segment that has its endpoints on the circular border but does not pass through the midpoint is called a chord. a circle is the same as 360 small circle up the number 0 . i hope this .
