Answer:

They  are taking 12 2 credit courses

The are taking 4  1 credit courses

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 1 credit courses

y = 2 credit courses

The number of courses is 16

x+y = 16

The number of credits is 28 so multiply the course by the number of credits

1x+2y=28

Subtract the first equation from the second equation

x+2y =28

-x-y=-16

-----------------

y = 12

They  are taking 12 2 credit courses

We still need to find the 1 credit courses

x+y = 16

x+12= 16

Subtract 12 from each side

x-12-12 = 16-12

x =4

The are taking 4  1 credit courses

8th grade solving systems
Serhud [2]

Answer:

(x+22) + x = 88

Step-by-step explanation:

if x is how much your friend collected, then how much you collected would be x + 22 because you collected 22 more then her. and if you add both of those together to get how much you collected together (the total) you get 88. so x (your friends sea shells) plus x+22 (your sea shells) is 88. tell me if you also need help solving the actual equation

you have x+22 + x = 88

you combine like terms, in this case the Xs

and you get 2x + 22 = 88

then you subtract 22 to both sides because you want to get x alone

and you get 2x = 88 - 22

which is 2x = 66

then you divide by 2 on both sides

and you get x = 66/2

and you get x = 33
