A nursery has $55,000 of inventory in dogwood trees and red maple trees. The profit on a dogwood tree is 29% and the profit on a red maple tree is 18%. The profit for the entire stock is 20%. How much was invested in each type of tree?

On dogwood $45,000 was invested

On red maple tree , $10,000 would be invested

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount invested on dogwood tree be d and the amount invested on red maple be r

Total is 55,000

Thus;

d + r = 55,000 ••••••(i)

Total profit is;

20/100 * 55,000 = 11,000

Profit on dogwood is;

29/100 * d = 0.29d

Profit on red maple is;

18/100 * r = 0.18r

Both equals 11,000

0.29d + 0.18r = 11,000 •••••••(ii)

From equation i, d = 55,000 - r

substitute into ii

0.29(55,000-r) + 0.18r = 11,000

15950- 0.29r + 0.18r = 11,000

4950 = 0.11r

r = 4950/0.11

r = 45,000

d = 55,000 - r

d = 55,000 - 45,000

d = 10,000

step-by-step explanation:

8

step-by-step explanation:

to find the amount of gift bags to use all the supplies, find the gcf or greatest common factor. this is the largest number which multiplies evenly into each term.

48 has factors: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12. 16, 24, 48

80 has factors: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 40, 80

64 has factors: 1, 2, 4, 8, 8, 16, 32, 64

the highest number factor they all share in common is 8. this means there will be 8 bags with 6 pencils, 10 markers, and 8 stickers in each bag.
