How to do two step equations?

1) First, add or subtract both sides of the linear equation by the same number.

2) Secondly, multiply or divide both sides of the linear equation by the same number.

3)* Instead of step #2, always multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of the coefficient of the variable.

step-by-step explanation:

mr. flanders’ class sold 47 doughnuts and   mr. rodriquez’s class sold 38 cartons of milk

step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of doughnuts sold by mr. flanders’ class and y be the number of cartons sold by mr. rodriquez’s class.

1. together, the classes sold 85 items, then

x+y=85.

2. both classes earn earned $104.49 for their school. if doughnuts were sold for $1.35 each, then x doughnuts costed $1.35x. if cartons of milk were sold for $1.08 each, then y cartons costed $1.08y. hence,

1.35x+1.08y=104.49.

3. solve the system of two equations:
