Answer:

x=2

y=5

Step-by-step explanation:

y= x+3...(1)

y= -x+7...(2)

(1) + (2):

y+y= (x+3) + (-x+7)

2y= (x-x) + (3+7)

2y= 10

y= 5

By substituting y=5 into (1),

we have

5= x+3

x+3=5

x= 5-3

x= 2

The number of boys varies directly as the number of girls and inversely as the number of teachers. When there are 24 boys and 16

lidiya [134]

SO from what I did was...

Since 24 x 3 = 72 , I did the same to 16.

16 x 3 = 48

But because instead of their being 3 teachers there is 1... What I did is just was to divide 48 / 2 which gave me the answer of 24...

So what I think the answer is...

There are 72 boys, 24 girls, and 1 teacher...

Unless I am just dumb and it would be 48 girls, but I think I did it right.

I hope I was able to help out.
