Kara has 21 collectible buttons to sell. She sells the small buttons for $3 and the large buttons for $4, and earns a total of $

68. If the small buttons are represented by x and the large buttons are represented by y which of the following systems of equations can be used to calculate the number of large and small buttons sold.Answersx+y=21,3x+4y=68x+y=68, 3x+4y=21x+y=21, 4x+3y=68x+y=68, 4x+3y=21

We know that there are 21 buttons total. x is the number of small buttons and y is the number of large buttons. 

Therefore, our first equation should be x+y = 21.

We know the small buttons sell for 3 dollars, meaning 3x represents how much is made from the small buttons. The larger buttons sell for 4 dollars, meaning 4y is how much is made from the large buttons. 

We also know that the total of the buttons sold is 68 dollars. Therefore 3x + 4y = 68 is our second equation.

From this information, the answer is the first set.

Please show all steps and explain what you did thoroughly, thank you for your time and help.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) x² + 6x + 11 = 0

a = coefficient of x² = 1

b = coefficient of x = 6

c = Constant = 11

Roots = (-b ± √b² - 4ac)/2a

D = \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}\\\\=\sqrt{6^{2}-4*1*11}\\\\=\sqrt{36-44}\\\\=\sqrt{-8}\\\\=\sqrt{8i^{2}}\\\\ = 2i\sqrt{2}

Roots = \dfrac{-6 \± 2i\sqrt{2}}{2}\\

          = \dfrac{2(-3 \± i\sqrt{2})}{2}\\\\=-3 \± i\sqrt{2}

2) 2x² - 16x = 50

Divide the whole equation by 2

x² - 8x = 25

Divide the coefficient of x  (i. e 8 ) by 2 = 8/2 = 4, Now add 4 to both sides of the equation

x² - 8x + 4 = 25 + 4

x² - 2*4*x + 2² = 29

(x - 2)² = 29

Take square root both side

x - 2 = \± \sqrt{29}\\\\x = 2 \± \sqrt{29}
