Answer:Answer: Isabella buys 2 paintbrushes and 3 jars of paint.

Step-by-step explanation:

Isabella can buy together 5 paintbrushes ( p ) and jars of paint ( p ) : j + p = 5, She can`t buy 4 items ( because 4 * $0.99 = $3.96 < $4.87 ) and she also can`t buy 6 items ( 6 * $0.95 = $5.70 > $4.87 ). So: p = 5 - j. Another equation is: 0.95 * ( 5 - j ) + 0.99 j = 4.87, 4.75 - 0.95 j + 0.99 j = 4.87; 0.04 j = 0.12; j = 0.12 : 0.04; j = 3, p = 5 - 3 = 2. We can prove it: 0.95 * 2 + 0.99 * 3 = 1.90 + 2.97 = 4.87.

(Hope this helps!!!!)

Jamie wants to build a rectangular fence around a new garden. He can afford at most 70
KonstantinChe [14]

Option B is correct. <em>Yes,</em><em> (9, 22) is a solution to the </em><em>inequalities</em><em> and the</em><em> measurements</em><em> will fit in the space. </em>

The formula for calculating the perimeter of the rectangular fence is expressed as:

A = 2(L + W) where:

L is the length

W is the width

If Jamie can afford at most 70feet to build a rectangular fence is expressed as:

2L + 2W ≤ 70

<em>We are to check if the garden measure 9 feet by 22 feet. To do this we are to substitute L = 9 and W = 22 into the formula to check if the result will be less than 70</em>

On substituting:

= 2(9) + 2(22)

= 18 + 44

= 62 feet

Since 63 feet is less than 70 feet, hence we can conclude that <em>Yes,</em><em> (9, 22) is a solution to the </em><em>inequalities</em><em> and the</em><em> measurements</em><em> will fit in the space. </em>
