Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let g and b represent the numbers of candy canes the girl and boy have, respectively.
g -1 = b +1 . . . . . . girl gives to boy, they're equal
g +1 = 2(b -1) . . . . boy gives to girl; she has double
Adding 1 to the first equation gives an expression for g that can be substituted into the second equation.
g = b +2
(b +2) +1 = 2b -2
5 = b . . . . . . . . . . add 2-b, simplify
g = 5+2 = 7 . . . . . find g
The girl has 7 candy canes; the boy has 5.
<span>-4(x-2)-5(y+2)+(-3)(8-6b)
= -4x + 8 - 5y - 10 - 24 + 18b
= -4x -5y + 18b - 26
