C. Minh and Mikayla are selling wrapping paper for a school fund-raiser. Customers can
buy either packages of folded paper or rolls of paper. Minh sold 6 rolls of paper and 2
packages of folded paper for a total of $44. Mikayla sold 3 rolls of paper and 9 packages
of folded paper for a total of $54. How much does each roll cost? How much does each
package of folded paper cost?

step-by-step explanation: given equation a = h(b 1+b 2)

also we are given values of a, h and b 1 as :

a = 16, h = 4, and b 1 = 3.

in order to solve it for b 2, we need to plug the given values of   a, h and b 1 .

therefore, plugging values of   a, h and b 1   in given equation, we get

16 = 4( 3 + b 2)

first dividing both sides by 4, we get

4 = 3 + b 2

subtracting 3 from both sides, we get

4 -3 = 3 -3 + b 2

1 = b 2.
