How many more robins did she see than cardinals? Enter the numbers to complete the equation and solve.

Respuesta :

Answer:

42 more

Step-by-step explanation:

Let carlita saw x and cardinals saw y robins.

According to question,

x=5y....(1)

and

x+y=48...(2)

Put the value of x from equation (1) in equation (2)

So,

5y+y=48

6y=48

y=8

Put y = 8 in equation (1).

x=5(8) = 40

Hence, Carlita see 42 more robins than Cardinals.
