490 x 2/5 = 980/5 = 196 girls at Garland
945 x 5/7 = 4725/7 = 675 girls at Bowood
Bowood has more girls:
675-196 = 479 more
From the first equation,
x+5 = 3(y+5)
x = 3y + 15 - 5
Now substitue x in the second equation with (3y +15 - 5).
x-5 = 7(y-5)
(3y+15-5) - 5 = 7(y-5)
3y +5 = 7y - 35
-4y = - 40
y = 10
Since y is 10, and x is (3y +15 - 5),
x = 30 + 15 - 5 = 40
8b - 1 = 24b + 4
8b - 1 + 1 = 24b + 4 + 1
8b = 24b + 5
8b - 24b = + 5
