j = # of jars
b = # of buckets
y = total # of rocks
2j + 3b = y (2 rocks per jar, 3 rocks per bucket)
Because Joy has 3 jars you can plug 3 in for "j", and because she has 4 buckets you can plug in 4 for "b"
2(3) + 3(4) = y
6 + 12 = y
18 = y
Answer:
31/6
Step-by-step explanation:
Write all numbers above the common denominator so 6-5/6
Multiply 6 by 6
Then we have 36 -5 / 6
Subtract the numbers so 36 -5 = 31 and 6 stays the same
We end up with 31/6 or 5 1/6 or 5.16 as Alternative form
Let the cost of 1 notebook be x and the cost of 1 binder be y.
4 notebooks and 3 binders would cost 23.5
Therefore, 4x + 3y = 23.5 (1)
7 notebooks and 6 binders would cost 44.5
Therefore, 7x + 6y = 44.5 (2)
Multiply the first equation by 2.
8x + 6y = 47 (3)
(3) - (2) gives
x = 2.5
Substitute the value of x in (1), we get,
4(2.5) + 3y = 23.5
10 + 3y = 23.5
3y = 23.5 - 10
3y = 13.5
y = 13.5/3
y = 4.5
Hence, cost of 5 notebooks and 3 binders is:
5x + 3y = 5(2.5) + 3(4.5)
= 12.5 + 13.5
= 26
Hence, cost of 5 notebooks and 3 binders is $26.
4.67, it’s a repeating decimal
