People in the U.S spend 18.8 billion dollars in 2009.

<h3>What is substituting ?</h3>

Substituting in mathematics is putting a specific value in an independent variable to observe a system.

According to the given data

Statins is the top selling drug in US to keep cholesterol in check.

The equation of the sales (S) of statin in billons of dollars x years after is

S - 1.3x = 4.5

The year difference is (2009 - 1998) = 11 years or x = 11

Putting the value of x in the given equation

S - 1.3(11) = 4.5

S = 4.5 + 14.3

S= 18.8

∴ The number of sales of statin is $18.8 billions.

How many solutions does the system have?
kramer

Answer:

B. No solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

y= -3x + 9

3y = -9x + 9

Rewrite the first equation below. Then, divide both sides of the second equation by 3 and write it below the first equation.

y = -3x + 9

y = -3x + 3

Now look at the two equations. They are both written in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, where m = slope, and b = y-intercept. They have the same slope (m = -3) and different y-intercepts (9 and 3), so they are equations of two different lines, but since the slopes are the same, the lines are parallel. Since the lines never intersect, there is no solution.

Answer: No solutions
