Answer:

Infinite Number of Solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

We can solve for y in the first equation, and plug that value in for y in the second equation.

<h3>Find the Equation for Y</h3>

-x + y = 9
y = 9 + x

Now that we know the equation for y, we can plug that in for y into the second equation to solve for x.

<h3>Solve for X</h3>

x - y = -9
x - (9 + x) = -9
x - 9 - x = -9
-9 = -9

Since the equations match, there are an infinite number of solutions.

If we take a close look at the equations, we can also see that they are the same equation, but with flipped signs.

A grocery store sells a 6-pack of bottle water for $3.79, a 9-pack for $4.50, and a 12-pack for $6.89. Which package costs the l

Cost per bottle

6 pack is 3.79 so the cost per bottle is 3.79/6=$0.631666666666667 per bottle

9 pack is 4.50 so the cost per bottle is 4.50/9=$0.50 per bottle

12 pack is 6.89 so the cost per bottle is 6.89/12=$0.574166666667 per bottle

0.63>0.57>0.50

the one that costs the least per bottle is the 9 pack which costs $0.50 per bottle
