Question 138601: 2. As you are leaving the community, you notice another new community just down the street. Because you are in the area, you decide to inquire about it.
(HELP can you please help)
a) The sales representative here tells you they also have two floor plans available, but they only have 38 homes available. Write an equation that illustrates the situation. Use x and y to denote floor plan #1 and floor plan #2 respectively. x = 19, y = 19, is this correct?
b) The representative tells you that floor plan #1 sells for $175,000 and floor plan #2 sells for $200,000. She also mentions that all the available houses combined are worth $7,200,000. Write an equation that illustrates this situation. Use the same variables you used in part a. x=$175,000, y = $200,000 is this correct????
