Question

Denise bought 116 ounces of beans for a bean dip. She bought both 15-ounce cans and 28-ounce cans, and the total number of cans she bought was 6. Which of these systems of equations can be used to determine the number of 15-ounce cans and the number of 28-ounce cans that she bought? Assume x represents the number of 15-ounce cans and y represents the number of 28-ounce cans. x + y = 6. 15 x + 28 y = 116. x + y = 6. 28 x + 15 y = 116. x + y = 116. 15 x + 28 y = 6. x + y = 116. 28 x + 15 y = 6.

Answer 1

2 28ounce cans and 4 15ounce cans

Explanation:

28+28=56 and 15+15+15+15=60

56+60=116
