Two students are going to the store to buy school supplies for the new school year. One of the students buys 2 packs of pencils and 3 packs of pens for $8.25. Her friend purchases 5 packs of pencils and 2 packs of pens for $11.00. Is there enough information to determine the cost of 1 pack of pencils and 1 pack of pens? If so, find the cost of each. Explain your thinking.

Let the unit price for pencil be x

Let the unit price for pack be y

If the students bought 3 packs of pencil and 2 packs of pen for $8.25, then;

Similarly;

If her friend bought 5 packs of pencil and 2 packs of pen for $11, then ;

We will have to solve both equations simultaneously as shown;

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Subtract the resulting equations;

Hence 1 pack of pen costs %1.75

To get x, you will substitute y= 1.75 into equation 2;

Hence 1 pack of pencil will cost costs $1.5

From the above solution, we can conclude that there are enough information to find the cost of each pack of pen and pencil.

answer: 88

step-by-step explanation:

first, let's see what the pattern is.

58 - x = 47

46 - x = 36

x = 9

so this means that the term after 25 is 25 - 9:

the next term in the sequence is 16.
