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. :)

marta [7]

Answer:

6 grapples

Step-by-step explanation:

x = number of wins

y = number of ties

y = 15 - x

48 = 5x + 2y

48 = 5x + 2(15 - x)

48 = 5x + 30 - 2x

48 = 3x + 30

18 = 3x

x = 6

At the gym, Jasper was able to bench press 224 pounds, which was 7/8 of the weight that Balin was able to bench press. Which sho
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

The answer SHOULD be 7/8=224/x;256 pounds.

You may have made a mistake in inputting it here on Brainly. So look for the one that matches that.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is what we know:

Jasper = 224 pounds

Balin = x

Jasper = 7/8 of x

Now we make an equation for that:

(\dfrac{7}{8})(x) = 224pounds

To match the selections we will isolate 7/8 on one side of the equation:

\dfrac{7}{8}=\dfrac{224}{x}

Using ratio and proportion we can solve for what x is. Multiply 224 by 8 and divide it by 7. Or you can do it this way too:

\dfrac{7}{8}=\dfrac{224}{x}

(7)(x)=(224pounds)(8)

7x=1792pounds

x=\dfrac{1792pounds}{7}=256pounds

So x = 256 pounds
