Answer: So, the DJ has a total of 194 rap songs, 582 dance songs, and 299 country songs. ❤❤

Explanation:

Dance (D) + Rap (R) + Country (C) = 1,075 songs

D = 3R

C = R + 105

RAP

Subtract 105 from both side:

(3R) + R + (R + 105) = 1,075

-105 -105

Combine all R's:

(3R) + R + R = 970

5R = 970

Divide both sides by 5:

5R = 970

/5 /5

R = 194

DANCE

D = 3(R)

D = 3(194)

D = 582

COUNTRY

C = R + 105

C = 194 + 105

C = 299

So, the DJ has a total of 194 rap songs, 582 dance songs, and 299 country songs.
