1. Suppose you are in the market for a new home and are interested in a new housing community under construction in a different city.
a) The sales representative informs you that there are two floor plans still available, and that there are a total of 24 houses available. Use x to represent floor plan #1 and y to represent floor plan #2. Write an equation that illustrates the situation. 1+y2=
b) The sales representative later indicates that there are 2 times as many homes available with the second floor plan than the first. Write an equation that illustrates this situation. Use the same variables you used in part a. 2 x y2=
a) To represent the situation where there are two floor plans still available, and a total of 24 houses available, we can use the equation:
x + y = 24
Here, x represents the number of houses available with floor plan #1, and y represents the number of houses available with floor plan #2. The equation states that the sum of the houses available with both floor plans equals 24.
b) To represent the situation where there are 2 times as many homes available with the second floor plan than the first, we can use the equation:
2x = y
Here, x and y have the same meaning as in part a. The equation states that the number of houses available with the second floor plan (y) is equal to 2 times the number of houses available with the first floor plan (x).
