Answer:

balloons= 9

candles= 8

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number of balloons be x

and candles be y

So

15x+8y=192----------1

x+y=17--------------2

from 2, x= 17-y

put x= 17-y in 1

15( 17-y)+8y=192

255-15y+8y=192

solve for y

-7y=192-255

-7y=-63

x=63/7

x=9

put x= 9 in 1

9+y=17

y= 17-9

y=8.

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

In symbols, the Law of Detachment is:

If p, then q. (This is a true statement.)

p is true.

Conclusion: q is true.

Explanation of the Law of Detachment with words and an example.

A conditional is given and is true. Then the hypothesis is given as true. By the Law of Detachment, you can conclude the conclusion of the conditional is true.

Example:

Conditional: If it rains, the grass is wet. (This is a conditional given as a true statement.)

Statement: It is raining. (This is the hypothesis of the conditional given as a true statement.)

Conclusion by the Law of Detachment: The grass is wet. (We conclude that the conclusion of the conditional is true.)

Now your problem:

Conditional: If Jillian gets a raise, then she will buy a new car.

Statement: Jillian got a raise.

Conclusion by the Law of Detachment: Jill will buy a new car.
