Let x represent number of bracelets and y represent number of necklaces.
We have been given that a jeweler made 7 more necklaces than bracelets. This means that number of necklaces will be 
. We can represent this information in an equation as:
We have been given that the amount of gold in each bracelet is 6 grams, so amount used for x bracelets would be 
grams.
We are also told that the amount of gold in each necklace is 16 grams, so amount used for y necklaces would be 
grams.
Since the jeweler used 178 grams of gold, so we will equate the amount of gold used in x bracelets and y necklaces with 178 as:
Therefore, our required system of equations would be:

The correct question is
<span>Zach keeps his pet chameleon Pinky in a terrarium with the dimensions 8 x 20. There are three inches of sand in the bottom of the terrarium. Zach gets a new terrarium that is larger. The base of the new terrarium is 10 x 24 inches. Zach moved the existing sand to the new terrarium. How deep will the sand be in the new terrarium?
</span>
Step 1
find the volume of sand
volume of sand=8*20*3------------>Volume of sand=480 in³
Volume of sand in the new terrarium=10*24*h
where h------------> is the deep in the new terrarium
remember that the volume of sand is the same
so
10*24*h=480----------> h=480/(10*24)-----------> h=2 in
the answer is 2 in
thus
and surely you know how much that is.
