9. You sell bracelets for $2 each and necklaces for $3 each at a local flea market.
You collect $95, selling a total of 37 jewelry items. How many of each type of
jewelry did you sell?

21 necklaces and 16 bracelets

Step-by-step explanation:

we can make use of variables :

b = bracelets

n = necklaces

we can create two equations with the information given:

2b + 3n = 95

b + n = 37

we can solve this by using elimination method:

firstly we need the values of (b) to be the same.

2(b + n = 37)

this gives :

2b + 2n = 74

now use this equation with the first one and use the elimination method.

2b + 3n = 95

2b + 2n = 74

the (2b) is cancelled out

3n - 2n = 95 - 74

n = 21

we can input the value of (n) into the original second equation to get the value of b.

b + n = 37

b + 21 = 37

b = 37 - 21

b = 16

50x5=$250

step-by-step explanation:

1/3 + 1/3 ≠ 2/6 because 1/3 alone = 2/6  

step by step explanation:

1/3 + 1/3 = 2/3       2/3=4/6
