A bucket contains 5 1/2 gallons of water. Water spills from the bucket so that only 5 pints remain.

How many pints of water spill from the bucket?

  39

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 8 pints in a gallon, so 5 1/2 gallons is (5.5)(8 pints) = 44 pints.

If 5 remain, then 44-5 = 39 were spilled.

39 pints of water spilled from the bucket.

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:

126 maybe. sorry
