Answer:
you need to show the graph
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: (5, 12)
Step-by-step explanation:
Just graph the linear equations and find where they intersect.
Algebraically, you can set them equal to each other
-3x-3=2x+2
-x-3=2
-x=5
x=5
Plug x=5 to any equation
y=2(5)+2
y=12
Step-by-step explanation:
5(2+8)=10+40
5(2+8)=50
10+40=50
50=50
Eliminate answer choices C and D immediately, since we are not looking to solve for either x or x^2; rather, we want the weekly profit (y) when the company sells x items. Eliminate choice A, because we are not looking to calculate the profit squared. This process of elimination of unsuitable answers leaves us with answer choice B, in which y is the the weekly profit in thousands of dollars, y, when the company sells x items.
