Answer: n=2
Step-by-step explanation:
Get graph paper make a graph mark them on your graph and since it says (n,-2) its going down because of the negative 2 i don't think this helped but if it did
<u>the correct question is</u>
The denarius was a unit of currency in ancient rome. Suppose it costs the roman government 10 denarii per day to support 4 legionaries and 4 archers. It only costs 5 denarii per day to support 2 legionaries and 2 archers. Use a system of linear equations in two variables. Can we solve for a unique cost for each soldier?
Let
x-------> the cost to support a legionary per day
y-------> the cost to support an archer per day
we know that
4x+4y=10 ---------> equation 1
2x+2y=5 ---------> equation 2
If you multiply equation 1 by 2
2*(2x+2y)=2*5-----------> 4x+4y=10
so
equation 1 and equation 2 are the same
The system has infinite solutions-------> Is a consistent dependent system
therefore
<u>the answer is</u>
We cannot solve for a unique cost for each soldier, because there are infinite solutions.
According to Wikipedia: "<span>In mathematics, a function
is a relation between a set of inputs and a set of permissible outputs
with the property that each input is related to exactly one output."
So based of this we need to look for a set where one of the x values or the y values is the same, and the other number is different.
Answer:
B.
(1,4) and (1,1) both have the same x, but different y!

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Cumin has the least price per ounce
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Divide each spice price to the size
Cumin -> 4.80/1.5= 3.2
Ginger -> 3.60/ 0.8= 4.5
Nutmeg -> 6.30/ 1.8= 3.5
Thyme -> 4.50/ 1.25= 3.6
