A car dealership earns a portion of its profit on the accessories sold with a car. The dealer sold a Toyota Camry loaded with accessories for $24,000. The total cost of the car was 8 times as much as the accessories. How much did the accessories cost? Cost of Accessories

y = 2666.67

Step-by-step explanation:

Well to solve this we can make a system of equations.

x = cost of car alone

y = cost of accesories,

So now we plug in 8y for x in x + y = 24000.

(8y) + y = 24000

9y = 24000

Divide both sides by 9

y = 2666.666666

or 2666.67 rounded to the nearest hundredth.

Now that we have y we can plug that in for y in x=8y.

x = 8(2.666.67)

x = 21,333.33 rounded to the nearest hundredth.

Thus,

accessories "y" cost around 2666.67.

Hope this helps :)
