Let's set up two equations:
x+y=20             We know she brought total of 20, some of each so x=small y=big
20x+ 30y=450
 
 x+y= 20
   -y    -y
 ------------
 x= 20 -y

substitute into the other equation:    
20 (20-y) + 30y = 450
400 - 20y + 30y = 450
400+ 10 y = 450
10 y = 50
y= 5

So she brought  5 big cases.  Then substitute the value of y into one of the equations.

5+ x = 20 
x= 15

So we bought 15 small cases and 5 big cases. 

Hope this helps! Please give me the brainliest answer if you like it! If you have further questions, please leave a comment or add me as a friend!

the national flag of scotland has a white diagonal on a blue backround Tracy is sewing a scottish flag she knows that the length
dybincka [34]

Answer:

12 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

By Pythagoras theorem, a²+b²=c², where c represents the diagonal and a and b represents the other sides of a right angled triangle

As a flag is a rectangle, the two triangles cut would be  right angled triangles

Therefore, a²+9²=15²

a²+81=225

a²=144

a=√144

a=12 feet

In December of 2003, the average price for a gallon of regular gas in the United States was $1.50.
12345 [234]

Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

because the cost stays the same and you would multiply blank gallons of gas by 1.50 every time so it is proportional. For example: it would be $1.50 to 1 gallon, $3 to 2 gallons, $4.50 to 3 gallons and would keep going like that, adding the same amount every time
