1 answer:

4 0

You can solve it by several ways, but easiest and shortest would be "By Elimination"

So, subtract 2nd equation from 1st,
-2x = 20
x = -10

Substitute it in 2nd equation,
-3(-10) + 9y = -6
30 + 9y = -6
9y = -6 - 30
y = -36/9
y = -4

In short, Your Answer would be: (-10, -4)

Hope this helps!

It would be C because you don’t know how many watches so there is a variable, x. Then the price has to be less then or equal to because the amount is the most she can use so it can’t be greater.
