Malik collects rare stamps and has a total of 212 stamps. He has 34 more domestic stamps than foreign stamps. Let x represent the number of domestic stamps and let y represent the number of foreign stamps.
Which equation represents the total number of stamps Malik collected?
Which equation represents the difference in the number of foreign and domestic stamps Malik collected?
Which system of linear equations represents the situation?

Respuesta :

equation represents the difference in the number of foreign and domestic stamps Malik collected: X-34=y

equation represents the total number of stamps Malik collected:
212 = X-34-y
so,
245= X-Y

Situation :
Y= X-34
X-Y= 245


Answer:

Which equation represents the total number of stamps Malik collected?

x+y=212

Which equation represents the difference in the number of foreign and domestic stamps Malik collected?

x-y=34

Which system of linear equations represents the situation?

x-y=34 and x+y=212
