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.

horace is a professional hair stylist. let ccc represent the number of child haircuts and aaa represent the number of adult hair
Novay_Z [31]

He can give at most 2 adult haircuts with the remaining time

<h3>How many adult haircuts at most can he give with the remaining time? </h3>

The inequality is given as:

0.75C + 1.25A <= 7

Also, we have

C = 5

Substitute C = 5 in 0.75C + 1.25A <= 7

0.75 * 5 + 1.25A <= 7

Evaluate the product

3.75 + 1.25A <= 7

Evaluate the like terms

1.25A <= 3.25

Divide by 1.25

A <= 2.6

Rewrite as

A < 3

Hence, he can give at most 2 adult haircuts with the remaining time

NeX [460]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I understand you hardships your going through. I believe you feel like you've lost your best friend, and I have gone through a similar experience when I was in 7th grade.

What I did was I wrote a journal everyday to let my teachers see my English improving day by day (he was my English teacher), because I wanted him to be proud of my progress once he came back.

This made me motivated to see how much time was left for my to see him coming back! I hope this helps.
