13x + 5y = 16
2x - 8y = 20

Multiply the equations;

13x + 5y = 16 [x2]
2x - 8y = 20 [x13]

26x + 20y = 32
26x - 104y = 260

Reverse the signs on one equation;

26x + 20y = 32
-26x + 104y = -260

'-26x' gets cancelled, leaving;

20y = 32
104y = -260

20y + 104y = 124y
32 - 260 = -228

124y = -228

y = -228 / 124

y = -1.84

Substitute in one equation and find 'x'. 

Hope this helped! :)

What graph represents −3x+1≤10
nalin [4]

The solution of the inequality is x ≥ -3 and the graph is shown below

<h3>Graph of inequalities </h3>

From the question, we are to determine the graph that represents the given inequality

The given inequality is

−3x + 1 ≤ 10

First, we will solve the inequality

−3x + 1 ≤ 10

Subtract 1 from both sides

−3x +1 -1 ≤ 10 - 1

−3x ≤ 9

Divide both sides by -3 and<u> flip the sign</u>

x ≥ -3

The graph of the inequality is shown below

D is the correct answer.

We do not need math in this instance, just knowledge.
We know that the answer will point to 0, not infinity. There are constraints. Also note that 1.75*7=12.25, which means you can fit no more than 7 books in the bag.
What best describes this? Answer Choice D
