5 times 0.85 = 4.25 gummy bears
9 times 1.20 = 10.80 gum
10.80 + 4.25 = 15.05 total<span />
The answer is a repeating decimal of 13.888... round accordingly.

Answer:
(-2, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the system of equations:
-3x + 2y = 12
x = 2y - 8
You can 'substitute' the expression '2y - 8' for the value of 'x' in the first equation and solve for 'y':
-3(2y - 8) + 2y = 12
Distribute: -6y + 24 + 2y = 12
Combine like terms: -4y + 24 = 12
Subtract 24 from both sides: -4y + 24 - 24 = 12 - 24 or -4y = -12
Divide both sides by -4: -4y/-4 = -12/-4 or y = 3
Use y = 3 to solve for 'x':
x = 2(3) - 8 or 6 - 8
x = -2
(-2, 3)
slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m =(-2-7)/(8-0)
m =(-9/8)
slope is -9/8
the y intercept is 7 (0,7)
y = mx +b
y = -9/8 x+7
Answer: y = -9/8x +7
