X = pencils, y = pens
8x + 6y = 8.50
4x + 4y = 5.....multiply by -2
----------------
8x + 6y = 8.50
-8x - 8y = -10 (result of multiplying by -2)
-----------------add
-2y = - 1.50
y = -1.50 / -2
y = 0.75 <=== pens cost 0.75
4x + 4y = 5
4x + 4(0.75) = 5
4x + 3 = 5
4x = 5 - 3
4x = 2
x = 2/4
x = 0.50 <== pencils cost 0.50
D, B, and A are collinear. Yes they are coplanar because they all lay on the same plane. And I don’t understand the last question
1/2 in simplified term
Step-by-step explanation:
Contrapositive is basically the converse of the statement. For example, the contrapositive of the statement "If the color is blue, then the fence is blue" is "If the color is not blue, the fence is not blue". Our answer choice that is correct is choice A.
