I want to decorate my room with leaves and turkeys for Thanksgiving. The number of leaves is twenty more than twice the number of turkeys. The number of leaves is ten less than 4 times the number of turkeys. How many of each type of decoration should I use?

50 leaves, 15 turkeys

Step-by-step explanation:

set up an equation

l = leaves

t = turkeys

l = 2t+20

l = 4t-10

2t+20=4t-10

30=2t

15=t (so that means that there would be 15 turkey decorations, but we're not            done yet)

substitute (either equation):

l = 2(15)+20

l = 30+20

l = 50 (so this means there would be 50 leaves)

hope this helps!

x+y = 29, 5x + 2y = 100

step-by-step explanation:

i'm guessing it was a multiple first option was the correct answer

x=17

step-by-step explanation:

solve 3x-24=x+10

then that makes it 2x=34 because you subtract an x from both sides to get rid of the one on the right, and then you add 24 to both sides to get rid of the 24 on the left

divide by both sides by 2 to get your answer so that you can get your answer
