I finished the test and here's the answer~!
3x+5y=25.75
8x+2y=29.00
So I first got what x is equal too.
8x+2y=29    8x+2y-2y=29-2y    8x=29-2y    8x/8=29/8-2y/8    x=3.625-0.25y
Next substitute x for the equation.
3(3.625-0.25y)+5y=25.75
10.875-0.75y+5y=25.75
10.875-10.875+4.25y=25.75-10.875
4.25y/4.25=14.875/4.25
y = 3.5
Now substitute y for 3.5.
8x+2(3.5)=29
8x+7-7=29-7
8x/8=22/8
x = 2.75
The price of a flower bouquet would be $2.75. Don't worry I got this question correct. :)

notice that for the perimeter we didn't include the segment BC, because the perimeter of a figure is simply the outer borders.

the length of marshalls retangular poster is 2 times the width if the perimeter is 24 inches what is the area
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
Let us assume the width of the rectangle = x
Then
The length of the rectangle = 2x
The perimeter of the rectangle = 24 inches
We know the formula of the perimeter of a rectangle is
Perimeter = 2 (length + Breadth)
24 = 2 (2x + x)
24 = 2 * 3x
24 = 6x
x = 24/6
   = 4
So the width of the rectangle = 4 inches
length of the rectangle = 2x
                                     = 2 * 4 inches
                                     = 8 inches
Now 
The Area of the rectangle = Width * Length
                                          = 4 * 8 inches^2
                                          = 32 inches ^2
So the area of the rectangle is 32 square inches. I hope i have helped you.
