and

(2) a+-+5+=+3%2A%28b+-+5%29

(2) a+-+5+=+3b+-+15

(2) 3b+-+a+=+10

Subtract (2) from (1)

(3) 2b+=+22

(3) b+=+11

Substitute this back in (1) or (2)

Step-by-step explanation:

do you have the measurements?

75

step-by-step explanation:

you do x-29=46 (the number of cantaloupes sold)

in order to find x, you have to find what minus 29 equals 46, meaning you'd have to add 29 to 46.

29+46=75

if you replace x with 75, the equation looks like:

75-29=46

x=75
