There are 25 tiles total - triangles or squares - 84 edges
 
triangle (<em>t</em>) = 3 sides
square (<em>s</em>) = 4 sides

<em>t</em>+<em>s</em>= total tiles 
<em><u>t</u></em><u>+</u><em><u>s</u></em><u> = 25 </u>← solve
3<em>t</em> + 4<em>s</em> = total sides
<u>3</u><em><u>t </u></em><u>+ 4</u><em><u>s</u></em><u> = 84</u> ← solve
<em>
</em><em>t </em>= 16   <em>s</em> = 9

Check

16 + 9 = 25

3(16) + 4(9) = 84
48 + 36 = 84

<u>There are 9 square tiles in the box</u>

Solve the system of linear equations by substitution.<br> 2x-y=3<br> x+5y=14
adoni [48]
Let 2x – y = 3 ——— equation 1

Let x + 5y = 14 ——— equation 2

Making x the subject in eqn 1, = x = y + 3 / 2 ——— eqn 3

• Put eqn 3 in eqn 2

(y + 3 / 2) + 5y = 14

6y = 14 – 3/2

6y = 25/2

y = 25/12

• put y = 25/12 in eqn 3

x = (25/12 + 3/2)

x = 43/12

56+34=n+30? Do you add 56+34 =90-30=60 n=60?
slamgirl [31]

You're on the right track. Start by combining like terms on the left side of the equation by adding 56 and 34.

90 = n + 30, now subtract 30 from both sides of the equation to isolate the variable n.

60 = n is the answer.
