WILL MARK BRAINLIEST Harry had $32. He spent all the money on buying 3 notebooks for $x each and 4 packs of index cards for $y e

ach. If Harry had bought 5 notebooks and 5 packs of index cards, he would have run short of $18. A student concluded that the price of each notebook is $5 and the price of each pack of index cards is $1. Which statement best justifies whether the student's conclusion is correct or incorrect? The student's conclusion is incorrect because the solution to the system of equations 3x + 4y = 32 and 5x + 5y = 50 is (8, 2). The student's conclusion is incorrect because the solution to the system of equations 3x + 4y = 32 and 5x + 5y = 18 is (8, 2). The student's conclusion is correct because the solution to the system of equations 3x + 4y = 32 and 5x + 5y = 18 is (5, 1). The student's conclusion is correct because the solution to the system of equations 3x − 4y = 32 and 5x − 5y = 50 is (5, 1).

Answer:

The student's conclusion is incorrect because the solution to the system of equations 3x + 4y = 32 and 5x + 5y = 50 is (8, 2).

Step-by-step explanation:

To see if the answer to an equation is right, you just have to put the value of X and Y into the equation system, since we don´t have the equation system that the student used, we will make our own, so we will start by stating that Notebooks are represented by X and index cards are represented by Y.

Your equation would look like this:

3x+ 4y=34

The student said that the price of the notebook is $5 and the index card would be $1, now we put those values into the equation.

3(5)+4(1)=32

15+4=32

19=32

Since 19 is not equal to 32, the equation is wrong, therefore the student is wrong.

Now to solve it you get your other equation, since if he had bought 5 and 5 he would have needed 18 extra dollars that means that

5x+5y= 32 +18

5x+5y=50

With the two equations you just use elimination process to create a single equation:

(5x+5y=50)-3=  -15x-15y=-150

(3x+4y=32)5 =   15x+20y= 160

You eliminate the x from the equation and are left with:

-15y+20y= -150+160

5y=10

y=\frac{10}{2}

y=2

Now that you have the value of Y you just put it into the equation to know the value of x:

5x + 5(2) = 50

5x+10=50

You clear the x and the result would look like this:

x= \frac{50-10}{8}

x=8

Answer:

B y+8 = 2(x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

perpendicular slope is a negative reciprocal of the x

which is 2x

then use the formula

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y + 8 = 2(x-4)

Ples help A square is a rectangle. always sometimes never
MakcuM [25]

By definition, a rectangle is:

Any four sided polygon (quadrilateral) that contains four right angles.

By extension, a square is:

Any rectangle where all sides are of the same, or equal, length.

<h3>So yes, a square is always a rectangle.</h3>

Answer part A, B, and C. (28 points)
mart [117]

A)

Two sides are 8 x 2 = 16 x 2 = 32 sq. in.

Two sides are 11 x 2 = 22 x 2 = 44 sq. in.

Top is 8 x 11 = 88 sq. in.

Total surface area: 32 + 44 + 88 =  164 square inches.

B) Area of a circle = PI x r^2

Area = 63.585

63.585 = PI x r^2

Using 3.14 for PI:

63.585 = 3.14 x r^2

Divide both sides by 3.14:

r^2 = 63.585 / 3.14

r^2 = 20.25

r = √20.25

radius = 4.5 inches.

C)

Diameter = radius x 2

Diameter = 4.5 x 2 = 9 inches.

I need the answer fore both plsss
grandymaker [24]

Answer:  6i) 6a² - 2ab

               6ii) -2b³

               6iii) b³ + 7b² - 49b

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

6i)   (a + b)(5a - 3b)             +    (a - 3b)(a - b)

=    5a² - 3ab + 5ab - 3b²   +    a² - ab - 3ab + 3b²

=    5a² + 2ab - 3b²             +   a² - 4ab + 3b²

= 6a² - 2ab

6ii)    (a - b)(a² + b² + ab)              -  (a + b)(a² + b² - ab)

=   a³ + ab² + a²b - ab² - a²b - b³ -  (a³ + ab² - a²b -ab² + a²b + b³)

=   a³ - b³                                      -  (a³ + b³)

=   a³ - b³                                      - a³ - b³

= -2b³

6iii) (b² - 49)(b + 7)             +     343

=     b³ + 7b² - 49b - 343    +    343

=     b³ + 7b² - 49b
