Question

Help me please!! Write a system of equations to describe the situation below, solve using substitution, and fill in the blanks.

Answer 1

Answer:

• Carly's expenditure was $240 and the number of boxes of cards was required is 24 boxes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

• 48 + 8(b) = Carly's expenditure
• 10(b) = Carly's expenditure
• 48 + 8b = 10b
• B = Boxes of cards

Work:

• 48 + 8b = 10b
• => 48 + 8b - 8b = 10b - 8b
• => 48 = 2b
• => b = 24

Now, let's substitute the value of b into any equation.

• 10(24)
• => 240

Hence, Carly's expenditure was $240 and the number of boxes of cards was required is 24 boxes.

Hoped this helped.
