18) The sum of two numbers is 153. The second is 3 more than 5 times the first.What are the two numbers?
2) A small company produces both bouquets and wreaths of dried flowers. The bouquets take 1 hour of labor to produce, and the wreaths take 2 hours. The labor available is limited to 80 hours per week, and the total production capacity is 60 items per week. Write a system of inequalities representing this situation, where x is the number of bouquets and y is the number of wreaths. then graph the system of inequalities.
Please help?
i can help you with #18:
say x represents the first number, then the second number is 5x+3. the total is 153 so your equation would be x+5x+3=153 which simplifies to 6x+3=153. subtact 3 from both sides and it becomes 6x=150. divide by 6. x=25
Reply:18) 25
hope this helps!!!!
Reply:say x represents the first number. then 153=x+(5x+3). Try solving that.
