Eq1) 2r+2s=50
eq2) 2r-s=17

solve for s in equation2 (eq2)

-s=17-2r
s=-17+2r
Substitute s into equation1 (eq1)
2r+2(-17+2r)=50
2r-34+4r=50
6r-34=50
6r=50+34
6r=84
r=14
Substitute into either equation and solve for s
2(14)-s=17
28-s=17
-s=17-28
-s=-11
s=11

Sarah's craft project uses pieces of yarn that are 1/8 yard long. She has a piece of yarn that is 3 yards long. How many 1/8 yar
Verdich [7]
If she used all of her yarn, she'd have 24 pieces. If she wanted 1.25 left, she'd have ten less because 24 • .125 = 8, and 1/4 of eight = 2, and 2 + 8 = 10.

So she'd have 14 pieces.
