Answer: 30.5 and 35.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use a system of linear equations to find out the answer to this problem. The larger number will be x and the smaller number will be y.

x=y+5

x+y=66

Substitute y+5 in for the bottom equation to get y+5+y=66. Simplify to get 2y+5=66. Subtract 5 from both sides and get 2y=61. Divide by 2 to get y=30.5. This is the smaller number. Add 5 to get the bigger number, which is 35.5

Answer:

Total profits = 49.50n

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of each quilt = $30.50

Selling price of each quilt = $80

Profits = selling price - cost price

= $80 - $30.50

= $49.50

Profits = $49.50

If n = number of quilts she sells

which expression could be used to represent her total profits?

Total profits = profits of each quilt × number of quilt sold

= $49.50 × n

= 49.50n

Total profits = 49.50n

saul85 [17]

Let's imagine we enclosed the entire shape in a 15 inch wide, 21 inch tall rectangle, area 315 sq inches.

From that rectangle we have to take away the 3x6 bottom left corner, and a strip 21-6=15 inches long and 3 inches wide on the right.

A = 15×21 - 3×6 - 3×15 = 315 - 63 = 252 sq in

Answer: D.   252 inches squared, last choice
