Question 390283: The sunday newspaper cost $2.10 per issue delivered and the Saturday and weekday papers cost 20 cents per issue delivered, how many complete weeks can be purchased for $79.20? Answer by robertb(5830) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let w = number of weeks. Then
2.10w + 6*0.20w = 79.20,
2.10w + 1.20w = 79.20,
3.30w = 79.20,
w = 24 weeks.
