LANDSCAPING The equation 3x+7y =105 represents the number of bags of sand x and bags of multch y that can be bought with $105. If no bags of sand are bought, how many bags of mulch can be bought with $105 ?
You could buy 15 bags of mulch with $105. To find the answer, plug in 0 for x since you aren't buying any bags of sand and then you have 7y=105 and divide by 7 to find y which is 15.
