Let
 x = loaves of bread
 y = batches of muffins
 You must make a system of two equations with two unknowns that describe the problem
 3.5x + 2.5y = 17 --- (1)
 0.75x + 0.75y = 4.5 --- (2)
 Resolving we have
 x = 6-y (from (2))
 replacing in (1)
 3.5 (6-y) + 2.5y = 17
 21 - 3.5y + 2.5y = 17
 y = 21-17 = 4
 Then substituting in (2)
 x = 6-y = 6-4 = 2
 Answer
 Helena could bake:
 2 loaves of bread
 4 batches of muffins

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Rectangular prisms have F=6 faces and E=12 edges.

By cutting one corner, we are adding 3 edges.

By cutting two corners, we are adding 2*3 = 6 edges.

Therefore the new solid has 12 + 6 = 18 edges.
