Please can someone help me with this question?

Arianna is buying plants for her garden. she buys 15 flowering plants for $96. pink flowering plants sell for $8, and purple flowering plants sell for $5. how many pink flowering plants did arianna buy? i figured out the answer! the answer is 7. 8x +5y = 96 plug in 7 for x 8 (7) + 5y = 96 56 + 5y = 96 subtract 56 from both sides 5y/y = 40/5 y = 8 she bought 7 pink and 8 purple plants

Draw a tape diagram to represent each situation.for some of the situations,you need to decide what to represent with a variable andre bakes 9 pans of brownies.he donates 7 pans to the school bake sale and keeps the rest to divide equally among his class of 30 students

3x + 4y = 5 x- 3y = -7 solve by substitution
