Jeff finds some bugs. He finds 10 fewer grasshoppers than crickets. He finds 5 fewer crickets than ladybugs. If Jeff finds 5 grasshoppers, how many ladybugs does Jeff find? How many circktets does he find? Write two equations to solve the problem.
If Jeff has 5 grasshoppers, then he would have 15 crickets because x(grasshoppers)+10=y(crickets), and y(crickets)+5=z(ladybugs), which would leave Jeff with 20 ladybugs.
