v + m = 32 and v = 5 + 2m are the equations that are used  to determine m, the number of stuffed animals Mariposa has

Number of stuffed animals Mariposa has is 9 and number of stuffed animals with Veronica is 23

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Let "v" be the number of stuffed animals with Veronica

Let "m" be the number of stuffed animals with Mariposa

Given that,

Together, they have 32 stuffed animals

Therefore,

v + m = 32  --------- eqn 1

Veronica has 5 more than double the number of stutted  animals as her friend Mariposa

Therefore,

Number of stuffed animals with Veronica = 5 + 2(number of stuffed animals with Mariposa)

v = 5 + 2m ---------- eqn 2

Thus eqn 1 and eqn 2 can be used to determine m, the number of stuffed animals Mariposa has

Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2

Substitute eqn 2 in eqn 1

5 + 2m + m = 32

5 + 3m = 32

3m = 32 - 5

3m = 27

<h3>m = 9</h3>

Substitute m = 9 in eqn 2

v = 5 + 2(9)

v = 5 + 18

<h3>v = 23</h3>

Thus number of stuffed animals Mariposa has is 9 and number of stuffed animals with Veronica is 23

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer: <em>"7 is a solution to the original equation. The value –1 is an extraneous solution."</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation x=\sqrt{6x+7} can be solved by squaring both sides:

x^2 = 6x + 7\\\\x^2 - 6x - 7 = 0\\\\(x-7)(x+1) = 0

We can see that -1 and 7 are solutions, but make sure they are not extraneous by substituting them in the original equation:

1 = \sqrt{-1}\\ 7 = \sqrt{49}

The square root of 49 equals 7, but the square root of -1 is an imaginary number.

The correct choice is <em>"7 is a solution to the original equation. The value –1 is an extraneous solution."</em>

8x-5y=15 <br>6x+4y=43<br>solve the system by any method​
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

x=\frac{275}{62} , y=\frac{127}{31}

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>I will use the elimination method.</h3>

We want to make the X's the same:

24x-15y=45

24x+16y=172

Because the signs of the X's are the same we subtract the 2 equations to make:

(I put the second one on top of the 1st)

31y=127

So:

y=\frac{127}{31}

Substitute y into either equation 1 or 2:

(I chose equation 1)

8x-5(\frac{127}{31})=15

8x=5(\frac{127}{31}) + 15

x=\frac{5(\frac{127}{31})}{8}

So:

x=\frac{275}{62}
