10x+2y=18
10x-7y=-18
Multiply the second one by -1
-10x+7y=18
Then add the two equations
10x+2y=18
+-10x+7y=18
----------------
9y=36
y=4

Plug that back into one of the equations above and solve for x
10x+2y=18
10x+2(4)=18
10x+8=18
10x=10
x=1

so your answer is x=1 and y=4 or (1,4)

mario62 [17]

Answer:

B.$8.98

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to determine the cost per ounce. We divide the cost by the number of ounces

3.59/16 =.224375 per ounce

Take the price per ounce and multiply by the number of ounces to determine the price of the 40 ounce jar

.224375 * 40 =8.975

Rounding to the nearest cent

8.98 for a 40 ounce jar
