The vegetable garden has 95 ripe plants. The number of tomatoes is 16 fewer than twice the number of squashes. How many of each vegetable are ripe?​

Tomatoes = 39.5

Squash = 55.5

Step-by-step explanation:

T (tomatoes) = S - 16

S + T = 95

we plug it in now

S + (S - 16) = 95

2s = 95 + 16

2s = 111

s = 55.5??

hm. Let's go with it

T = 55.5 - 16

T = 39.5

39.5 + 55.5 = 95

I...guess?
