Answer:
X = 1,700; Y = 1,000; Z = 800
Step-by-step explanation:
I could have sworn I answered this??? Sorry! Brainly, why wouldn't you let me answer this last night??? Anyway, for these types of problems, use X, Y, and Z for the three things you need to solve. First, we know that X (the fastest printer) = 100 + 2Z, where Z = the slowest printer. Z + Y = 100 + X or Z + Y = 100 + ( 100 + 2Z). --> Y - 200 = Z and Y = Z + 200. Next, we can add X + Y + Z together and set it equal to the full amount of newspapers, 3,500. Which would stand as 100 + 2Z + Z + 200 + Z = 3,500, let's try to solve for Z first, since it'll be super easy. We get 300 + 4Z = 3,500 --> 4Z = 3,200 --> Z = 800. Y = 200 + 800 = 1,000 and X = 100 + 2*800 = 1,700. And Z + Y = 800 + 1,000 = 1,800, which is 100 papers more than the fastest printer.
