A cook buys two identical bags of rice and uses some of the rice in each bag so that one is half -full and the one is one-third full. The cook combines them into one bag, which then contains 3 1/3 cups of rice. How much rice was in a full bag?

first, we define the variables:

x: number of years after 1950

f (x): amount of vinyl sold.

then, with the variables defined, we have:

68594 vinyl records were sold in 1958 > f (8) = 68594

91299 vinyl records were sold in 1961 > f (11) = 91299

38720 vinyl records were sold in 1952 > f (2) = 38720

161743 vinyl records were sold in 1967 > f (17) = 161743
