A worker is installing blue and white square tiles in a kitchen. Blue tiles have different lengths than white tiles. A row of 8 blue tiles and 16 white tiles has a length of 39 inches. A row of 40 blue tiles and 8 white tiles has a length of 42 inches. Write a system of equations that represents in inches the relationship between the length of a blue tile and

8x + 16y = 39 and

40x + 8y = 42

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the blue tiles is b inches and that of the white tiles is w inches.

So, given that a row of 8 blue tiles and 16 white tiles has a length of 39 inches and a row of 40 blue tiles and 8 white tiles has a length of 42 inches.

Therefore, we can write the system of linear equations that represents the relationship between the length if a blue tile and a white tile in inches as

8x + 16y = 39 and

40x + 8y = 42 (Answer)

hey there!

if she's saving for six months, let's divide the total number we need for the trip by six, dividing it into the amount that needs to be saved for each month.

500 ÷ 6 =

she needs to save at least this amount each month, so we should use this symbol: ≥

let x be the amount she saves each month.

your final answer is x ≥

hope this !

answer: no, but if it does it's a obvious pattern.
