ANSWER:

3,400

STEP BY STEP:

If 2/17 were socialists, then 15/17 were not socialists.

So...

3000 = 15/17x

(x represents the total number of teachers)

Multiply by 17 on both sides.

51,000 = 15x

Divide by 15 on both sides.

3,400 = x

Total number of teachers:  3,400.

A. 2x+y=25; x+y=20
x represents cheese wafers and y represents chocolate wafers.

B. I will choose elimination since there is y and y. I can multiply one equation by -1 to get y and -y, which cancels out.
2x+y=25
-x-y=-20

Add equations
x=5

Plug x in
5+y=20
y=15

Final answer: 5 cheese wafers, 15 chocolate wafers
