Question 660244: A trip total cost is $1100. 1/3 of the cost is for travel; 2/5 is for lodging. Write an equation to determine cost of travel & co
st of lodging. Answer by ReadingBoosters(3246) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! x = 1100 total cost
y = travel
z = lodging
y = (1/3)x
z = (2/5)x
y + z = (1/3)x + (2/5)x
(1/3)(1100) + (2/5)(1100)
366.67 + 440 = 806.67
