7. Judith bought a combination of gingerbread house kits and gingerbread cookie kits to
decorate at an upcoming holiday event. The number of house kits, y, was one more than half the
number of cookie kits. If Judith bought a combination of
10 gingerbread house and cookie kits, the following
system can represent the situation:

Answer 1

Judith bought 6 cookie kits and 4 house kits.

Let y represent the number of house kits and x represent the number of cookie kits.

If Judith bought a combination of  10 gingerbread house and cookie kits, hence:

x + y = 10     (1)

Also, number of house kits was one more than half the  number of cookie kits, hence:

y = (1/2)x + 1   (2)

From the graph, the solution is at (6, 4)

Hence, Judith bought 6 cookie kits and 4 house kits.
