Two friends are collecting stuffed animals. Veronica has 5 more than double the number of stutted
STatiana [176]

v + m = 32 and v = 5 + 2m are the equations that are used  to determine m, the number of stuffed animals Mariposa has

Number of stuffed animals Mariposa has is 9 and number of stuffed animals with Veronica is 23

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Let "v" be the number of stuffed animals with Veronica

Let "m" be the number of stuffed animals with Mariposa

Given that,

Together, they have 32 stuffed animals

Therefore,

v + m = 32  --------- eqn 1

Veronica has 5 more than double the number of stutted  animals as her friend Mariposa

Therefore,

Number of stuffed animals with Veronica = 5 + 2(number of stuffed animals with Mariposa)

v = 5 + 2m ---------- eqn 2

Thus eqn 1 and eqn 2 can be used to determine m, the number of stuffed animals Mariposa has

Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2

Substitute eqn 2 in eqn 1

5 + 2m + m = 32

5 + 3m = 32

3m = 32 - 5

3m = 27

<h3>m = 9</h3>

Substitute m = 9 in eqn 2

v = 5 + 2(9)

v = 5 + 18

<h3>v = 23</h3>

Thus number of stuffed animals Mariposa has is 9 and number of stuffed animals with Veronica is 23
