Answer:

• 6x +5y = 45
• x +y = 8
• x = 5 . . . jars of jam
• y = 3 . . . packages of bread mix

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem statement gives two relations between x (jars of jam) and y (packages of bread mix).

  6x +5y = 45 . . . . . . total cost

  x + y = 8 . . . . . . . . . number of items

__

These equations can be solved a number of ways. Substituting for y, we get ...

  y = 8 -x

  6x +5(8 -x) = 45

  x +40 = 45

  x = 5 . . . . . . . . . jam

  y = 8 -5 = 3 . . . mix

There are 5 jars of jam and 3 packages of bread mix in the gift basket.
