A man ordered 4 times as many boxes of ballpoint pens as boxes of felt-tip pens. Ballpoint pens cost $4.41 per box, and felt-tip pens cost $3.44. If the man's order of pens totaled $63.24, how many boxes of each type of pen did he buy?
How many boxes of felt-tip pens did he buy?

Respuesta :

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = # of boxes of felt-tip pens.

(x)(3.44)+(4x)(4.41) = 63.24

21.08x = 63.24

x = 3

Because x = 3, the man bought 3 boxes of felt-tip pens and 12 boxes of ballpoint pens.
