3x + 11.63 = 20
3x + 11.63 - 11.63 = 20 - 11.63
3x = 8.37

by subtracting the 11.63 from both sides, this tells us how much the grapes cost....not per lb., but for the total of all the grapes.

Mrs Lim packs 35 big and small bags of candies for her pupils. Each big bag contains 12 candies and each small bag contains 7 ca
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

there are 11 big-bags and 24 small-bags.

Step-by-step explanation:

there are x big-bags and y small-bags.

so now we can know:

(1) x + y = 35

(2) 12x + 7y = 300

in (1),we can do like this:

both left and right x7

then (x + y)x7 = 35 x 7

then 7x + 7y = 35 x 7  

then 7x + 7y = 245

now,

(1)7x + 7y =245

(2)12x + 7y = 300

we can both left and right do this: (2) - (1)

then

(12x + 7y) - (7x + 7y) = 300 -245

then

12x + 7y - 7x - 7y = 300 -245

then

12x - 7x +7y - 7y =300 -245

then

5x =55

then

5x ÷ 5 = 55 ÷ 5

then

x = 11

because

x + y =35;x=11

so

11 + y =35

11+ y -11 = 35 -11

then

y = 24

now we know:there are 11 big-bags and 24 small-bags.
