To add the bushes and trees, to get 19 bushes and 6 trees, but this wouldn't get me anywhere, because I don't have subtotals for the bushes and trees.

So I'll pick variables (b for the number of bushes and t for the number of trees) and set up a system of equations:

first order: 13b + 4t = 487

second order: 6b + 2t = 232

Multiplying the second row by –2, I get:

13b + 4t = 487

–12b – 4t = –464

This says that b = 23.

Back-solving, I get that t = 47.

Of course, the exercise didn't ask for the values of the two variables. Translating back into English, the solution is,

each bush is $23 and each tree is $47.

Aiden walked 2/3 of a mile in 1/5 of an hour. What is his rate in miles per hour?
Tanzania [10]
To get a full hour we need to multiply the quantity (1/5) by 5 because this = 1. Now you would have to also multiply the (2/3) by 5.
10/3 miles or 3 and 1/3 miles
