Answer: 19 cupcakes and 37 cookies were sold.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of cupcakes that Jesse sold yesterday.
Let y represent the number of cookies that Jesse sold yesterday.
If he sold 56 cupcakes and cookies combined, it means that
x + y = 56
Each cupcake sold for $1.50 and each cookie sold for $0.25. At the end of the day, Jesse had sold $37.75 worth of cookies and cupcakes. This means that
1.5x + 0.25y = 37.75 - - - - - - - - - - -1
Substituting x = 56 - y into equation 1, it becomes
1.5(56 - y) + 0.25y = 37.75
84 - 1.5y + 0.25y = 37.75
- 1.5y + 0.25y = 37.75 - 84
- 1.25y = - 46.25
y = - 46.25/ - 1.25
y = 37
x = 56 - y = 56 - 37
x = 19
Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Distribute </u>-
12x − 66 + 15 = 3x + 12
<u>Combine Numbers and Variables</u> -
12x - 51 = 3x +12
<u>Get x on one side (isolate x)</u> -
9x - 51 = 12
9x = 63
<u>Divide 9</u> -
x =7
Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: A bushel contains 4 pecks and a peck contains 8 quarts.
i.e. A bush = 4 pecks
A peck = 8 quarts
Then, Number of quarts in 1 bush = 4 (8) =32
Let b = number of bushes and q = number of quarts
Number of quarts(q) in b bushes = 32b
hence, required equation: which describes the relationship between the number of b bushels and the number of q quarts.
