Sheryl has a basket of ripe apples and peaches. The number of apples in the basket is 12 more than twice the number of peaches. If there are 36 apples in the basket, there are ? Peaches in the basket.

24 peaches

Step-by-step explanation:

36-12=24

24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 32 34 35 36

0    1    2   3   4   5   6    7   8  9   10  11   12  

subtract 12 from 36 that makes 24 to check that you have to count from 24 to 36 and if you count with your hands then count your fingers and you should have 12 fingers up.

answer a: product property

mr. flanders’ class sold 47 doughnuts and   mr. rodriquez’s class sold 38 cartons of milk

step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of doughnuts sold by mr. flanders’ class and y be the number of cartons sold by mr. rodriquez’s class.

1. together, the classes sold 85 items, then

x+y=85.

2. both classes earn earned $104.49 for their school. if doughnuts were sold for $1.35 each, then x doughnuts costed $1.35x. if cartons of milk were sold for $1.08 each, then y cartons costed $1.08y. hence,

1.35x+1.08y=104.49.

3. solve the system of two equations:
