To find the total of what you sold for each package, you'll need to write two equations. Know that x = paper plate packages and y = utensil packages.
First, x + y = 15 shows that there has to be fifteen packages, and 8x + 5y = 90 shows the $ made from selling a certain number of packages.
Next, you can solve by substitution, so change x + y = 15 to y = 15 - x.
To find our x, substitute the y in 8x + 5y = 90 to get
8x + 5(15 - x) = 90
Distribute: 8x + 75 - 5x = 90
Combine the X's and subtract the 75: 3x = 15
Divide the 3: x = 5
Now with our x, we can put 5 into the original equation x + y = 15 to get 5 + y = 15. Subtracting the 5, we get y = 10.
So, you have delivered 5 paper plate packages and 10 utensil packages.
Answer:
C. x + 9 = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
We are trying to identify which of the equations does not match with the others. In this case, solve for x in each equation:
Option A):
6 + x = 9
Subtract 6 from both sides:
6 (-6) + x = 9 (-6)
x = 9 - 6
x = 3
Option B):
15 = x + 12
Subtract 12 from both sides:
15 (-12) = x + 12 (-12)
15 - 12 = x
x = 3
Option C):
x + 9 = 11
Subtract 9 from both sides:
x + 9 (-9) = 11 (-9)
x = 11 - 9
x = 2
Option D):
7 + x = 10
Subtract 7 from both sides:
x + 7 (-7) = 10 (-7)
x = 10 - 7
x = 3
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As you can tell, all the equations end with x = 3 as there answers except C. x+9=11, making (C) your answer.

Answer: Brielle will run the marathon faster.
Brielle = 104.8 minutes
Joshua = 157.2 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Speed rate = distance /time
Brielle = 1.25 /10 = 0.125 miles per minute
Joshua = 1.5/18 = 0.083333 =1/12 miles per minute
Since 0.125 (Brielle) > 1/12 (Joshua)
Brielle will run the marathon faster.
To calculate the time that takes each one to run the entire race (13.1 miles)
Time= distance / speed
- Brielle = 13.1 /0.125 = 104.8 minutes
- Joshua = 13.1 / (1/12)= 157.2 minutes
Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
