Sammy picks blueberries and cherry tomatoes.
• she earns $3.00 for each pint of blueberries and $2.00 for every pint of cherry tomatoes she picks.
• sammy earned a total of $28.00.
• she picked twice as many pints of tomatoes as blueberries.
how many pints of blueberries did sammy pick?

Step-by-step explanation:

b = pints of blueberries

c = pints of cherry tomatoes

3b + 2c = 28

2b = c

First, substitute 2b into the c of the first equation.

3b + 2(2b) = 28

3b + 4b = 28

7b = 28

b = 4

Then, substitute 4 into the b of the second equation.

2(4) = c

c = 8

Then, substitute both values into the first equation to check.

3(4) + 2(8) = 28

12 + 16 = 28

step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x

step-by-step explanation:

last month maria hiked the 5-mile mountain trail a number of times and she hiked the 10-mile canal trail several times. let x represent the number of times she hiked the 5-mile trail, and let y represent the number of times she hiked the 10-mile trail. if she hiked a total of 90 miles, which equation can be used to find the number of times maria hiked each trail? x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x
