Variables are taken from the first letter of the color, ex: green = g.
Given:
r = g
2r = b = y
Total =42
So then:
r+ r + 2r + 2r = 42
6r = 42
r = 7
y = 2r
y = 2(7)
14 of the 42 pencils were yellow.
The given equations are:
5x - 2y = 88
3x + 4y = 58
Multiplying the 1st equation by 2, we get the new set of equations as:
10x - 4y = 176
3x + 4y = 58
Adding the two equations, we get:
10x - 4y + 3x + 4y = 176 + 58
13x =234
x = 18
Using the value of x in 1st equation, we get:
5(18) - 2y = 88
- 2y = 88 -5(18)
-2y = -2
y = 1
So, the solution of the equation is (18, 1)
