Answer:
6 $10 bills
Step-by-step explanation:
First you have to make a system of equations like such
5x + 10y = 150
x + y = 24
Now you can use any strategy to simplify it but I'll use multiplication and the subtraction:
5x + 10y = 150 - 5x + 5y = 120 = 5y = 30 this simplified is y = 6. You then substitute 6 for y in either equation. x + 6 = 24 and make it on opposite sides. x = 18.
So 18 $5 bills and 6 $10 bills
He will need 17 inches of ribbon.
The diagonal splits the square into two right triangles. We can then use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the diagonal (the hypotenuse of the triangle):
12² + 12² = x²
144 + 144 = x²
288 = x²
Take the square root of both sides:
√288 = √x²
16.97 = x
17≈x
The answer would be B, 1.7 and 1.8.

Infinitely many solutions
The system shows the same equation, so x and y could be anything
