John's paycheck is for $x and y cents. When he cashes it the cashier accidentally gives him $y and x cents. As a result John ( who is not paying attention at all) has lost $95.04. How much was John's original check for. Find all the possible solutions.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "-----------------
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "check value - cashier pay = $95.04
\n" ); document.write( "100x+y - (100y+x) = 9504 cents
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "99x-99y = 9504
\n" ); document.write( "x - y = $96
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "y = x-96
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "y cannot be negative
\n" ); document.write( "x >= 96
\n" ); document.write( "96 <= x <= 99
\n" ); document.write( "------------------
\n" ); document.write( "so x = 96 or 97 or 98 or 99
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Johns paycheck is $x and y cents =
\n" ); document.write( "$96.00
\n" ); document.write( "or 97.01
\n" ); document.write( "or 98.02
\n" ); document.write( "or 99.03
