Answer:
x + y = 64
x + 10 = y
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it isn't asking for the solutions, I won't solve.
let y represent drama students, and x represent the yearbook students.
We know that DS (drama students) plus YS (Yearbook students) equals 64 students in total. To write this mathematically you would write x(YS)+ y(DS) = 64 (Students in total) except just <em><u>x + y = 64</u></em>.
The second part of this system explains what y is.
We know that the drama club has 10 more students than yearbook students, so YS plus 10 equals the amount of DS. To write this mathematically you would write <em><u>x + 10 = y</u></em>.
Combine the two systems by writing
x + y = 64
x + 10 = y
<em>P.S. Let me know if you need the system solved.</em>
