Im thinking it is 7 weeks.
There are 87 girls and 58 boys!
i divided 5 from 145 and got 29.
i multiplied 29 and 3 and got 87.
87 is the girls total.
then subtracted 87 from 145 and got 58.
58 is the boys total.
hope this helps!
The first equation can be written as:
2x = 5 + 3y
Substituting the second equation into the first equation and rearranging:
-4y - 16 = 5 + 3y
-21 = 7y
y = -3
Substituting y = -3 into the second equation:
x = -2(-3) - 8
x = -2
