Hi there!

Amit's reasoning is incorrect because multiplying a positive number by a negative number results in a negative result. The question also says that it is a charge to his account, which means that money is being taken away. Therefore, Amit's reasoning is incorrect because the bank is taking away money from him and his equation results in a positive value, instead of negative.

Hope this helps!! :)
If there's anything else that I can help you with, please let me know!

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

Option A is the correct choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d be the number of boxes of duck calls and t be the number of boxes of turkey calls.

We have been given that a company sells boxes of duck calls for $35 and boxes of turkey calls (t) for $45, so the revenue earned from selling d boxes of duck and t boxes of turkey call will be 35d and 45t respectively.

Further, the company plan to make $300. We can represent this information as:

$35d+45t=300...(1)$

We are also told that they make batches of duck calls that fill 6 boxes and batches of turkey calls that fill 8 boxes. the company only has 42 boxes. We can represent this information as:

$6d+8t=42...(2)$
