The french club sold rose bouquets and chocolate hearts for valentine's day. the roses sold for $5 and the hearts sold for $3. the number of bouquets sold was 15 more than the number of hearts sold. if the club collected a total of $339, how many of each gift was sold?

33 hearts sold, 48 roses sold

Step-by-step explanation:

x- number of roses sold

y- number of hearts sold

x=15+y <- " The number of bouquets sold was 15 more than the number of hearts sold"

5x+3y=339

5(15+y)+3y=339

75+5y+3y=339

8y=339-75

8y=264

y=33

x=15+33=48

there is no grid

step-by-step explanation:

3

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
