Answer:
Blake's total number of cards now: 1.25b
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of cards now would be equal to 25% increase from b.
<em>This means we INCREASE b by 25% OF b.</em>
<em />
What is 25% of b???

Now we need to ADD this to original amount, b.
So, 
Answer:
x= -3 and y = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
so basically what you are trying to do is reduce into finding x and y
what you do is you want to find a number to multiply one of the equations in order to get the same x or y value does not matter which
so,...
we can do
either 20x or 15y
we will go with the smallest 15y
so for both equations multiply the whole thing by 5 for the first equation and by 3 for the second
5 x 5x+3y=3 --> 1
3 x 4x+5y=18 --> 2
we then get
25x+15y = 15 -->1
12x + 15y = 54 -->2
then now that you have the same Y values you can subtract ! which cancels out both the 15y
25x+15y = 15 -->1
- 12x + 15y = 54 -->2
13x =-39
so now x=-3 and all you have to do with x = -3 is sub this into either one of the equations that you started with !
x = -3
5(-3) +3y =3
-15 + 3y = 3
3y = 3+15
3y=18
y = 6!
