Question 1140491: a video store rents new release movies for $3 and favorites for $1.75. one day the number of new release movies was twice the number of favorites. If the total income from those rentals was $658.75, how many movies of each kind were rented Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! number of favorites is x and movies are 2x
so 3(2x)+1.75(x)=678.75
7.75x=658.75
x=85 favorites ($148.75)
2x=170 movies ($510)
