Answer:
- 18 baseball cards
- 12 football cards
Step-by-step explanation:
The only relationship shown in the table is in week 1, where the ratio of baseball to football cards is ...
baseball : football = 9 : 6
In week 1, the total of these numbers is 15. You want the total in week 5 to be 30, double the total in week 1. So, Thomas needs to purchase double the numbers he purchased in week 1:
- 18 baseball cards
- 12 football cards

This table came from another question you posted, a question with no content other than the table. The blue numbers are blanks in the original table that have been filled in so as to keep the same 3:2 proportion in each week. They appear to have no bearing on this question.

Answer:
1) x- y = 8
x + y = 12
eliminate one variable by adding the equations
2x = 20
divided by 2 on both sides
x = 10
substitute the value of x in the equation 1
10 - y = 8
-y = 8- 10
y =2
[x , y]
[10 , 2]
2) 2x - y = 4
3x + y = 6
eliminate one variable by adding the equations
5x = 10
x = 2
substitute the value of x in the equation
2(2) - y = 4
4 - y = 4
y = 0
[x ; y]
[2; 0]
3) x + 2y = 10
x + 4y = 14
multiply equation 1 by - 1
-x -2y = -10
x + 4y = 14
eliminate one variable by adding the equations
2 y = 4
y = 2
substitute the value of y in the equation 1
x + 2(2) = 10
x + 4 = 10
x = 6
[x ; y]
[6 ; 2]
4 ) 3x + y = 9
y = 3x + 6
simplify the expression
3x + y = 9
- 3x + y = 6
eliminate one variable by adding the equations
2y = 15
y = 15/2
substitute the value of y in equation 1
3x + 15/ 2 = 9
3x = 3/2
x = 1/2
[x ; y]
[1/2 ; 15/ 2]
5) 4x + 5y = 15
6x - 5y = 18
eliminate one variable by adding the equations
10 x = 33
× = 33/10
substitute the value of x in equation I
4 (33/10) + 5y = 15
66/5 + 5y =15
5y = 9/5
y = 9/25
[x ; y]
[33/10 ; 9/25]
6) 5x = 7y
x + 7y = 21
in equation I move the variable to the left
5x - 7y = 0
x + 7 y = 21
eliminate one variable by adding the equations
6x = 21
x = 7/2
substitute the value of x in the equation
5(7/2) = 7y
35/2 = 7y
5/2 = y
[x ; y ]
[7/2 ; 5/2 ]
