[Data Assessment] Help with some word problems.
Hello! I'm preparing for an exam and am having trouble solving these 2 problems I found on a practice test. I’m having trouble eliminating/isolating a single variable. Can anyone teach me how to solve these?
- Find the % floor space occupied by each vendor
a. Software vendors - The area for software vendors + service vendors + twice the area for hardware Vendors = 560,640 sq ft
b. Service Vendors - The area for service vendors + hardware vendors + security vendors = 449,680 sq ft
c. Harware Vendors - no data given
d. Security Vendors - The area for security vendors + software vendors = 356,240 sq ft - Find the quantity of each vegetable
a. A total of 2,400 tomatoes were harvested
b. Corn and green beans account for 50% of all vegetables
c . Peppers and corn account for the same number of vegetables as zucchini
d. Peppers and zucchini combined account for 50% more vegetables than tomatoes
e. Corn and zucchini combined account for 1/5 of all vegetables
Thank you!
