Answer: Number of bags of 8. = 33

Number of bags of 10. = 31

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Number of bags of 8.

y = Number of bags of 10.

As per given.

8x+10y= 574   (i)

x=y+2 (ii)

Put value of x from (ii) in (i)

8(y+2)+10y= 574\\\\\Rightarrow\ 8y+16+10y=574\\\\\Rightarrow\ 18y=574-16\\\\\Rightarrow\ 18y=558\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=\dfrac{558}{18}\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=18

Put this in (i), x= 31+2=33

Hence,

Number of bags of 8. = 33

Number of bags of 10. = 31

A recipe for cookies calls for 3 1/4 cups of sugar. Amy has already put in 3 1/9 cups. How many more cups does she need to put i
sammy [17]
So 3 and 1/4 is equal to 4/4+4/4+4/4+1/4=13/4

so she put in 3 and 1/9 or 9/9+9/9+9/9+1/9 or 28/9

28/9+x=13/4
13/4-28/9=x

so we convert so that the bottom numbers are the same

a short cut is 3 and 1/4+x=3 and 1/9 
3 1/9+x=3 1/4
subtract 3 from both sides
1/9+x=1/4
subtract 1/4 from both sides
x=1/4-1/9
convert bottom number to same thing
1/9=4/36
1/4=9/36
x=9/36-4/36
x=5/36
5/36 cups
