Mr. Alhammadi is shopping for school supplies with his children. Rashed selected 3 one-inch binders and 2 two-inch binders, which cost a total of 29 dirhams. Matar selected 5 one-inch binders and 2 two-inch binders, which cost a total of 35 dirhams. Write a system of equations that represents the above situation.

I need help ASAP please :(

3x + 2y = 29

5x + 2y = 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = cost of one-inch binders

y = cost of two-inch binders

Rasheed:

3x + 2y = 29 (1)

Matar:

5x + 2y = 35 (2)

3x + 2y = 29 (1)

5x + 2y = 35 (2)

Using elimination method, subtract (1) from (2)

5x - 3x = 35 - 29

2x = 6

x = 6/2

x = 3

Substitute x = 3 into (1)

3x + 2y = 29 (1)

3(3) + 2y = 29

9 + 2y = 29

2y = 29 - 9

2y = 20

y = 20/2

y = 10

points are handed out whenever you post answers.

brainliest answers are handed out by the person asking the question, so whether your answer is picked depends entirely on whether the asker bothers to pick

if you're asking about your rank, it depends on having a certain number of points and a certain number of brainliest answers. for example, at the time of this writing, i have 44338 points out of 15000 needed for the next (nearly triple the requirement! ) but i only have 24 out of 50 required brainliest answers. this number decays, meaning after a certain amount of time (i think about a month), the total number of brainliest answers you've earned doesn't count toward this total. (i've been stuck at the same rank for a long

the lesson to learn here is that you shouldn't worry about points or rank. chances are, no matter how good an answer you may provide, your efforts will go mostly unnoticed unless you focus on the newest/most active questions that get posted.

pay attention in your classes and concentrate the best thing you can do to raise your test scores is to pay attention when you're supposed to be learning the material: in class!

take good notes.

do your homework.

use mnemonics and other tricks.

do practice tests.

note: the best i know.
