Harry had $32. He spent all the money on buying 3 notebooks for $x each and 4 packs of index cards for $y each. If Harry had bou

ght 5 notebooks and 5 packs of index cards, he would have run short of $18. A student concluded that the price of each notebook is $5 and the price of each pack of index cards is $1. Which statement best justifies whether the student's conclusion is correct or incorrect? The student's conclusion is incorrect because the solution to the system of equations 3x + 4y = 32 and 5x + 5y = 50 is (8, 2). The student's conclusion is incorrect because the solution to the system of equations 3x + 4y = 32 and 5x + 5y = 18 is (8, 2). The student's conclusion is correct because the solution to the system of equations 3x + 4y = 32 and 5x + 5y = 18 is (5, 1). The student's conclusion is correct because the solution to the system of equations 3x − 4y = 32 and 5x − 5y = 50 is (5, 1).

The answer is The student's conclusion is incorrect because the solution to the system of equations 3x + 4y = 32 and <span>5x + 5y = 50 is (8, 2)

Harry's money is $ 32

He said that he spent ALL of his money buying 3 Notebooksx and 4 cards y, so the equation that represent this is </span> 
3x + 4y = 32 .

He said that HE IS SHORT $18 if he wants to buy 5 notebook x and 5 cards y,
So the equation that represent this is
5x + 5y = 32 + (18)
5x + 5y = 50

And (8,2) is the only one that fit in both equation/

After adding an 8-pound box with 6 identical boxes, the crate weighed 72 boxes
damaskus [11]

After adding 8 students to each of 6 same-sized teams, there were 72 students altogether.

After adding an 8-pound box of tennis rackets to a crate with 6 identical boxes of ping pong paddles, the crate weighed 72 pounds.

The first situation has all equal parts, since additions are made to each team. An equation that represents this situation is 6( x + 8 ) = 72, where x represents the original number of students on each team. Eight students were added to each group, there are 6 groups, and there are a total of 72 students.

In the second situation, there are 6 equal parts added to one other part. An equation that represents this situation is 6x + 8 = 72, where x represents the weight of a box of ping pong paddles, there are 6 boxes of ping pong paddles, there is an additional box that weighs 8 pounds, and the crate weighs 72 pounds altogether.

In the first situation, there were 6 equal groups, and 8 students added to each group. 6( x + 8 ) = 72.

In the second situation, there were 6 equal groups, but 8 more pounds in addition to that. 6x + 8 = 72.
