Question 936520: A private school spent $860,000 in one year to pay all the teachers and administrators. The school has a total of 24 teachers and administrators combined if teachers make $35,000 per year and administrators make $40,000 per year, how many teachers and how many administrators does the schoolhouse? Answer by TimothyLamb(4379) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! x = number of teachers
y = number of admins
---
x + y = 24
35000x + 40000y = 860000
---
put the system of linear equations into standard form
---
x + y = 24
35000x + 40000y = 860000
---
copy and paste the above standard form linear equations in to this solver:
