Let's assume
the number of bags of candy =x
the number of bags of cookies =y
There were 5 more bags of cookies sold than candy
so, we get

Bags of candy cost $5.50
so, total cost of candy is

bags of cookies cost $3.50
so, total cost of cookies is

so,
total cost = (total cost of candy)+(total cost of cookies)
we get
total cost =5.50x+3.50y
so, we can plug

now, we can plug y








now, we can find y



so,
the number of bags of candy =4
the number of bags of cookies =9............Answer
Answer:
B. (x-3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Factorise the equation with suitable values.
In order to get 6 from x²-5x+6,
as an example, use the numbers 3 and 2.
We will get to factorise it to become (x-3)(x-2)
Based on the choice answers given, the answer is B. (x-3)
X=56+4y
6x-6y=678
x-y=113
x=113+y
113+y= 56+4y
57=3y
y=19
x=132
