A grocery store recently sold a bag of peanuts for $0.76 and a bag of Pikachu's for $3.68 at the end of the day 50 bags of peanuts and Pikachu's were sold for a total of 128 point 52 how many bags of each were sold

Let the number of peanut bags be x

Then, Number of pikachu bags = 50 - x

Given,

Then,

⇛ Total cost he gets from peanut bag = $0.76 × x

⇛ Total cost he gets from pikachu bag = $3.68(50 - x)

According to question,

⇛ $0.76x+ $3.68(50 - x) = $128.52

Solving this equation,

⇛ 0.76x + 184 - 3.68x = 128.52 (Removed $ symbol)

⇛ 184 - 2.92x = 128.52

⇛ 184 - 128.52 = 2.92x

⇛ 55.48 = 2.92x

Flipping the equation,

⇛ 2.92x = 55.48

⇛ x = 55.48 / 2.92

⇛ x = 19

Then,

⇛ 50 - x = 50 - 19 = 31

31 Pikachu bags were sold.

19 peanut bags were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up an equation of the total revenue of the day, where x is the number of Pikachu's sold.

We know that the number of Peanuts sold is 50-x (as the total needs to be 50)

We know that the total revenue is:

Number of Pikachus * Cost per Pikachus + Number of Peanuts * Cost per Peanuts

Using our definitions above:

Total Revenue = x * $3.68 + (50-x) * $0.76

We know that the revenue needs to be $128.52.

$128.52 = x * $3.68 + (50-x) * $0.76

Let's remove the $ signs.

128.52 = x * 3.68 + (50-x) * 0.76

Multiplying both 50 and -x with 0.76, "expanding" the parenthesis.

128.52 = x*3.68 + 50*0.76 - x*0.76

128.52 = x*3.68 + 38 - 0.76*x

Subtracting 38 from both sides

90.52 = 3.68*x - 0.76*x

We can simplify the right side.

90.52 = 2.92*x

We can divide both sides by 2.92:

31 = x

And flip it:

x = 31

So 31 Pikachus were sold (remember we claled that x), and as we know, the number of peanut bags sold is

50-x = 50-31 = 19

31 Pikachu bags were sold.

19 peanut bags were sold.
