R = rides
S = sodas
6R + 3S = $21.75 —> -12R - 6S = -43.5
10R + 6S = $39.50–>10R + 6S = 39.5
Multiplying Justin’s whole equation by -2 will bring out the 6S’, so we can focus on the cost of one ride.
-2R = -4
Divide both sides by -2
So for one ride, it would cost $2.
To find the cost for one soda, we plug in the cost for a ride.
6(2) + 3S = $21.75
12 + 3S = $21.75
3S = $9.75
So for one soda, it would cost $3.25.
Answer:
(a+5)^2=25 means a^2+5^2=25, a^2=25-25 then a^2=√0, a=0
Yeah I'm not sure but I think it's 6
X = the age of Mr. Gilliam
His wife is 3 years older, so the age of Mr. Gilliam's wife = x+3
The sum of their ages is 95.

Mr. Gilliam is 46 years old.
