#1 Find two consecutive integers such that the sum of one-third of the first and one-fourth of
the second is 9.
Solution:
Let i = the first integer
i + 1 = the second integer
so, the equation is
1/3 (i) + 1/4 (i +1) = 9
What is the LCD? (answer:12)
Then,
12[ 1/3 (i) + 1/4 (i + 1) ] = 9(12) Multiply both sides by the LCD, 12.
4i + 3i + 3 = 108 Apply the Distributive property.
7i + 3 = 108 Combine like terms
7i + 3 – 3 = 108 – 3 Apply subtraction property
7i = 105 Divide both sides by 7
i = 15 First integer
i + 1 = 16 Second integer
Therefore, the integers are 15 and 16.
The students in dressmaking class want to buy fabric for their project. The cost of the fabric
is P43 per meter. However if they will buy more than 20 meters, it will be marked down to P38 per
meter. How much they will pay if they will buy 18 meters? 43meters?
Solution:
Let C = the amount paid (P)
n = the number of meters bought
C(n) = 43n , if (0 < n ≤ 20) where n = 18 meters
C(n) = 43(18)
C(n) = P774.00
C(n) = 38n , if ( n > 20) where n = 43 meters
C(n) = 38(43)
C(n) = P1634.00
Therefore,
if n = 18meters, the amount paid is P774.00
if n = 43meters, the amount paid is P1634.00

A Minibus travels 150 km in the same time that a Ceres bus travels 100km. If the Minibus goes
20km/hr faster than Ceres , find the rate of each bus.
Solution:
Let r = the rate of the Ceres
r + 20 = the rate of the Minibus
d r T
Ceres 100 r 100
r
Minibus 150 r+20 150
r +20
