Answer:
the answer is approximately 48.05.
Step-by-step explanation: You can either use a calculator or estimate knowing that 50 is the square root of 2500, which is slightly above 2309. You can also use differentials and calculus to find an approximation.
Substituting y=6x+2 into equation 3y - 18x =12 looks like:
3(6x + 2) - 18x = 12
18x + 6 - 18x = 12 distributive property left side
6 = 12 simplifying the left side
We now see a contradiction: 6 does not equal 12 What this tells us is that there is no solutions to this equation. So choice 'C' ...
