B=cost per boquet
v=cost per vase

3b+5v=25.75
8b+2v=29.00

use eliminateion
divide 2nd equation by 2
4b+v=14.50
multiply it by -5 and add to other equation to eliminate v

-20b-5v=-72.5
<span><u>3b+5v=25.75 +</u></span><u />
-17b+0v=-46.75

-17b=-46.75
divide both sides by -17
b=2.75

a boquet costs $2.75

The Garcia family started the day with 2 gallons of milk. They drank 111 quart of milk for breakfast and 3 pints for lunch.
irina1246 [14]
3 pints

There are 8 pints of milk in 1 gallon. There is also 4 quarts in 1 gallon. So each quart is 2 pints.
After breakfast they had 3 quarts of the original gallon left since 4 - 1 = 3.
3 quarts is the same as 6 pints. They drank 3 pints at lunch. This means 6 - 3 = 3. After lunch, there were 3 pints left.
