The question is a little vague but I believe the answer would be 16. 16 divided in half is 8. And that is 8 less than 16. < Not the answer for this question.

I didn't understand the question until Maria answered, she is completely right! Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

10 SENIORS

Step-by-step explanation:

x=# of seniors

y=# of juniors

x+y=23, x=2y-7

  1. plug the value of x in the second equation into the first
  2. (2y-7)+y=23
  3. Remove parentheses
  4. 2y-7+y=23
  5. Combine like terms
  6. 3y-7=23
  7. Add 7 to BOTH sides
  8. 3y=30
  9. divide BOTH sides by 3
  10. 3y/3=30/3
  11. y=10
  12. There are 10 juniors in the class
  1. FINAL STEPS
  2. Plug y (which is 10) into the first equation
  3. x+y=23
  4. x+10=23
  5. subtract 10 from BOTH sides
  6. x=13
  7. Since X equals the number of seniors, there are 10 seniors in the class
