Solve the real-world situation by using the substitution method. The number of DVDs sold at a store in a month was 923 and the number of DVDs sold decreased by 12
per month. The number of Blu-ray Discs sold in the same store in the same month was 505 and the
number of Blu-ray discs sold increased by 26 per month. Let d represent the number of discs sold and t
represent the time in months.
The system of equations
{d=923-12t
{d=505+26t
can be used to represent this situation.
If this trend continues, how many months will the number of DVDs sold equal the number of Blu-ray discs
sold? How many of each is sold in that month?
There will be DVDs and Blu-Ray discs sold per month in months.

In 11 months, the number of DVDs sold and Blue-Ray discs sold will be same, 791 of each.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the equation d = 923-12t, substitute 505+26t (from the second equation) for 'd'. We get

505 + 26t = 923 - 12t

-505 + 12t   -505 + 12t

38t     =       418

t=11

d = 923-12(11) = 791

d = 505+26(11) = 791

After 11 months, selling 791 of each.

Hope this helps.

791

Step-by-step explanation:

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
