Again lol yes the answer is yea
Okay so to represent juice we are going to use X, and to represent water we are going to use Y.
We also know that the first two starting equations are:
6x + y = 135
4x + 2y = 110
We can re-arrange the first equation so that it equals y (for now), so it is going to end up looking like this:
y = -6x +135
Now you can take that equation and plug into either one of the starting two equations. I chose the second equation. We just substitute what y equals in for y in the equation, so we have:
4x + 2(135 - 6x) = 110
Now solve
4x + 270 -12x = 110
-8x + 270 = 110
Subtract 270 from both sides
-8x = -160
Now divide by -8 on both sides
x = 20
We can now confirm that juice costs $20
Now lets plug that into the equation where we solved for y, to get the actual value of y.
y = 135 - 6(20)
y = 135 - 120
y = 15
The price of water costs $15
From this we can conclude that the cost of juice is $20 and the price of water is $15
I haven't done this in a while, but I'm pretty sure the answer is D, (-3, -1.)
If you were to substitute x for -3 and y for -1 in the first inequalities and simplify, it would look like this:
-1 > -3-2
-1 > - 5
And that inequality is true, because -1 is bigger than -5. Let's also substitute in the other inequality, which would be:
-1 > 2(-3) + 2
-1 > -6 + 2
-1 > -4
And -1 is bigger than -4. So, I think the answer would be D because substituting for those values of x and y would stil. make the inequalities true.
The reason is because she didn't survey the school, but only surveyed her class, and to add to that It didn't say it was a random selection of students. Juliet concludes that short stories is the favorite type of book of the students in her school because 80% of the students in her class like short stories. Just because most of her class chose short stories she believes the rest of the school will have the same choice.
