x = number of 1-cent stamps
y = number of 8-cent stamps
z = number of 12-cent stamps
We have 31 stamps all together, so x+y+z = 31.
"I have 4 more 1-cent stamps than 8-cent stamps" means we have the equation x = y+8. Whatever y is, add 8 to it to get x. Solve for y to get y = x-8.
You also have "twice as many one cent stamps as 12 cent stamps", so x = 2z. Solving for z gets you z = 0.5x
-------------
x+y+z = 31
x+x-8+z = 31 ... y replaced with x-8
x+x-8+0.5x = 31 ... plug in z = 0.5x
2.5x-8 = 31
2.5x = 31+8
2.5x = 39
x = 39/2.5
x = 15.6
Your teacher made a typo somewhere because we should get a positive whole number result for x (since x is a count of how many 1-cent stamps we have).
1/8 of 32 is 4 so if Ryan is 4 then Brandon is 2
so Ryan = 4 and Brandon = 2
Answer:
$195.00
Step-by-step explanation:
perimeter is 54 feet
area is 152 
54' * $1.50 = $81.00
152/8 = 19 bags of mulch needed
19*$6.00= $114.00
$195.00 you get away from the store for under 200 :P
P.S. since you said you'll do anything, send me $1,000,000.00 dollars :D
