Choose the correct answer
A) $32,000  B) $36,000  C) $40,000  D) $42,000  E) $45,000
0.17B-0.23T = 200 | * 100   17B-23T=20,000   T+B=100,000   B=100,000 - T   17(100,000 - T) - 23T = 20,000   1,700,000 - 17T - 23T = 20,000   1,680,000 = 40T   divide by 40   first two digits: 42...so answer is $42,000.
