IF YOUR SOLVING FOR A THE ANSWER WOULD BE A=X+12
IF YOUR SOLVING FOR X IT WOULD BE X=-12+A
3x - 2y = 1
2x + 2y = 4
Add the second equation to the first
5x = 5
2x + 2y = 4
Divide the first equation by 5
x = 1
2x + 2y = 4
Subtract the first equation from the second
x = 1
x + 2y = 3
Subtract the first equation from the second again
x = 1
2y = 2
Divide the second equation by 2
x = 1
y = 1
<h3>
So, the solution is x = 1 and y = 1 {or: (1, 1)} </h3>

Answer:
Brownies made the most money
Step-by-step explanation:
Let c = cookies
b = brownies
We sold 51 items so c+b = 51
Cookies are .75 and brownies are 1.25
.75c + 1.25 b = 53.25
We have 2 equations and 2 unknowns
c = 51-b
Substituting into the second equation
.75(51-b) + 1.25b = 53.25
Distribute
38.25-.75b +1.25b = 53.25
Combine like terms
38.25+.5b = 53.25
Subtract 38.25 from each side
38.25 +.5b -38.25 = 53.25 -38.25
.5b =15
Divide each side by .5
.5b/.5 = 15/.5
b = 30
Now find c
c =51-b
c = 51-30
c = 21
They sold 30 brownies and 21 cookies
30 brownies * 1.25 =37.50
21 cookies *.75 = 15.75
Brownies made the most money
