Answer:

The jeweler made 11 bracelets and 7 necklaces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a jeweler had a fixed amount of gold to make bracelets and necklaces, and the amount of gold in each bracelet is 6 grams and the amount of gold in each necklace is 16 grams, knowing that the jeweler used 178 grams of gold and made 7 more necklaces than bracelets, to determine a system of equations that could be used to determine the number of bracelets made and the number of necklaces made, the following mathematical reasoning should be considered:

(16 - 6) x 7 = 70

178 - 70 = 108

108/6 = 18

18 - 7 = 11

(11 x 6) + (7 x 16) = X

66 + 112 = X

178 = X

Thus, the jeweler made 11 bracelets and 7 necklaces.

While Preparing For A Morning Conference, Principal Corsetti Is Laying Out 8 Dozen Bagels On Square Plates. Each Plate Can Hold
USPshnik [31]
We have 8 dozen bagels, or 8*12=96 bagels.  Each plate can hold 14 bagels, so we have enough bagels to fill 96/14=about 6.86 plates.  However, we cannot have a fraction of a plate, so we round up to have a total of seven plates.  To fill all seven plates fully, 7*14=98 bagels would be needed, which is two more than we have.

To summarize, Mr. Corsetti has seven plates of bagels, and would need two more bagels to fill the last one up.
