A jeweler had a fixed amount of gold to make bracelets and necklaces. The amount of gold in each bracelet is 8 grams and the amount of gold in each necklace is 24 grams,
The jeweler made a total of 16 bracelets and necklaces using 288 grams of gold.
Graphically solve a system of equations in order to determine the number of bracelets
made, z, and the number of necklaces made, y,

a) y = -3x +2

b) y = 1/2x -6

these 2 can be combined into one equation.

-3x +2 = .5x -6

8 = 3.5x

x = 8 / 3.5 = 2.2857142857

y = -3 * (8 / 3.5) +2

y = (-24 / 3.5) + 2

y = -4.8571428571

step-by-step explanation:

the total estimated nappy use.=10,500,000

step-by-step explanation:

given that on an average the average baby uses 3528 napkins.

in a particular year 2014, the number of births were 299697 in new south wales.

rounding off the number of births to the nearest hundred thousand we have

no of birtsh = 300000

also rounding off the average usage to nearst thousand we get

average use of a baby = 3500

hence total number of nappy estimated to be used = 3500x300000

= 10,500,000

answer is 10,500,000 nappies

3000000000000000000000
