Answer:
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
2b + 8 − 5b + 3 = −13 + 8b − 5
Reorder like terms.
2b-5b+8+3=8b-13-5
Combine those like terms. Then solve.
-3b+11=8b-18
-11 -11
-3b=8b-29
-8b -8b
-11b=-29
/-11 /-11
b=2.64

The answer to this is C. 72
<h3>
Answer: Choice A) 9 combinations</h3>
Explanation:
Imagine you had a table with 3 rows and 3 columns. The rows represent the possible main dishes (Chicken, Fish, Beef) and the rows represent the side dishes (Rice, Potatoes, Vegetables).
The table has 3*3 = 9 cells inside it. Each inner cell represents a different combo the customer can order.
Step 1: multiple the second equation by 2 so that you get -1/4 for the coefficient of y, the same as in equation 1
equation 2 multiply by 2: 1/4 x - 1/4 y=38 ..........name this equation 3
subtract equation 1 from equation 3: (1/4 x -1/2 x)=38-10
-1/4 x = 28
x=-112
plug in x=-112 in any of the equation, you will get y=-264
so the answer is A
