Question 1058571
.
My dad enjoyed jogging at night. He would have his little MP3 player with him listening to either R&B, jazz, or news while he did 
this nighly ritual.  In a hypothetical situation, Dad had exactly 14 hours and 5 minutes of audio content on his device. 
The linear equation 6x+4y+125=845 can help determine how many jazz songs, x, and how many R&B songs, y, Dad on his MP3 player. 
Based on this situation, how many R&B songs and jazz songs combined were on my dad's device if the number of songs for each genre was the same?

<pre>
In this many-words story they invite you to put x = y in their equation

6x + 4y + 125 = 845.

As soon as you do it, you will get

6x + 4x + 125 = 845.

And they want you solve it for x.

It is easy. Simplify the last equation:

10x + 125 = 845  --->  10x = 845 - 125  --->  10x = 720  --->  x = {{{720/10}}} = 72.

<U>Answer</U>.  There are 72 the jazz songs and  72 R&B songs in the MP3 player.
         The rest of the information in the input is excessive and serves for the only purpose to distract your attention.

Solved.


They only want to test if you are able to separate the significant information from the "noise" in the text.
