Answer:
C as there is only 1 student with 2 siblings.
The solution to system is x = 0 and y = -1
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
<em><u>Given system of equations are:</u></em>
-8x + 2y = -2 ----------- eqn 1
4x + 4y = -4 ---------- eqn 2
We have to solve the system of equations
We can solve the equations by elimination method
<em><u>Multiply eqn 2 by 2</u></em>
8x + 8y = -8 ------ eqn 3
<em><u>Add eqn 1 and eqn 3</u></em>
-8x + 2y = -2
8x + 8y = -8
( + ) ---------------
0x + 2y + 8y = -2 - 8
10y = -10
Divide both sides by 10
y = -1
<em><u>Substitute y = -1 in eqn 1</u></em>
-8x + 2(-1) = -2
-8x - 2 = -2
-8x = -2 + 2
x = 0
Thus the solution to system is x = 0 and y = -1
2 times (9+7) is correct.
9 + 7 = 16.
16 multiplied by 2 is 32.
I’m pretty sure the answer is D
