a + g = 360 8a = g now sub 8a in for g in the 1st equation a + 8a = 360 9a = 360 a = 360/9 a = 40 now sub 40 in for a in either of the equations to find g 8a = g 8(40) = g 320 = g She bought 40 angelfish and 320 goldfish

i have another one
Allan and Dave bowl together and their combined total score for one game was 375 points. Allan’s score was 60 less than twice Dave’s. What were their scores? Which is a system of equations to model the problem if x represents Dave’s score and y represents Allan’s score? A. x+y=60 y=2x-375 B. x + y = 375 y = 2x – 60 C. x + y = 375 y = 2x + 60 D. x – y = 375 y = 2x – 60
x + y = 375 y = 2x - 60 answer : B
