20 = m + r
60 = 2m + 6r

Using substitution, you would subtract R from both sides in the first equation.

20 - r = m

Substitute (20 - r) for m in the second equation.

60 = 2(20 - r) + 6r

Distribute the 2

60 = 40 - 2r +6r

Combine like terms.

20 = 4r

Divide both sides by 4

5 = r

Now put R back into the first equation.

20 - 5 = m

15 = m

There were 15 multiple choice and 5 extended response questions.
