A town’s low temperature for January was -8 degrees Fahrenheit. The difference between the town’s high temperature and low temperature for January was 25 degrees Fahrenheit. What was the town’s high temperature, in degrees Fahrenheit, for January? Explain your answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

high temperature - low temperature = 25

high temperature - (-8) = 25

{when subtracting negative numbers, we have to add the additive inverse of (-8). Additive inverse of (-8) is 8}

high temperature + 8 = 25

{Subtract 8 form both the sides}

high temperature +8 - 8 = 25 - 8

high temperature = 25 - 8

high temperature = 17 degree Fahrenheit

x=2 & x=1

step-by-step explanation:

7*1=7

7*2=14

7 is less than 21

14 is less than 21

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:
