I think the answer is C. "He made a place value error when dividing. If he would have divided 1.09 by 8, he would have found the price of each individual pen.
Answer: 2nd diagram, explanation below
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it is 8 magnet students for 3 magic students, the second diagram is correct.
The second part, you would need to set up a system of equations:
Let m = magnet students and t = magic students
t + 25 = m
(8/3)t = m. Since m = m, substitute: t + 25 = (8/3)(t). Now solve for t: t = 8t/3 - 25,
t = (8t - 75)/3, in this step I turned 25 into 75/3 and place it with 8t so it doesn't change the value of the equation.
3t = 8t - 75, in this step I multiplied every term by 3 to eliminate the demoninator. Now I solve the final steps:
-5t = -75, 5t = 75
t = 15

Solve for y in 3x+7=y
y=7−3x
Substitute y=7−3x
y=7−3x into 8x−3y=30
8x−3y=30.
17x−21=30
Solve for x
x in 17x−21=30
17x−21=30.
X=3
Substitute x=3 into y=7−3x
y=-2
Therefore,
x=3
y=−2
