Answer:

4 records sold on Wednesday, 32 records sold on Thursday!

Explanation:

To do 9b, you need to set up our own equation!

Let's use W to represent records sold on Wednesday and T to represent records sold on Thursday.

It said 36 total records were sold on Wednesday and Thursday. This can be represented with the following equation ...

W + T = 36

It also tell us that on Thursday (T), 8 times the number of records sold on Wednesday were sold on Thursday. In equation form, this looks like ...

T = 8 × W

Now, let's use all this info to solve!

Let's first solve the equation W + T = 36

But, we need values! We have one! We know what T equals!

Let's plug in T

T = 8 × W

W + ( 8 × W ) = 36

Solve

W + 8W = 36

9W = 36

W = 4

4 records were sold on Wednesday!

Let's plug in W in our T equation to see how many records were sold on Thursday.

T = 8 × W

T = 8 × 4

T = 32

32 records were sold on Thursday!

Wednesday can be represented with HALF A CIRCLE

and Thursday can we represented with FOUR CIRCLES
