w = number of weeks
b(w) = number of books read after w weeks
====================================
b(w) = 12 translates to "after w weeks, Katy will have read 12 books" or put another way "Katy will have read 12 books after w weeks". The 'w' is a placeholder for some number
====================================
b(2) = 10 means "Katy has read 10 books after 2 weeks". We use the same basic idea talked about above, but we replace w with 2. At the same time, we use 10 instead of 12.
====================================
b(3) = f means "Katy has read f books after 3 weeks" or "after 3 weeks, Katy has read f books". Like w, the f is a placeholder for some number.
Answer:
y = -2x -2
x + 2y = 2
2x + y = -2 } x1
x + 2y = 2 } x2
2x + y = -2 } we eliminate 2x
2x + 4y = 4 } same signs subtract and different add respectively
-3y = -6
-3 -3
y = 2 (x , 2) we reserve
2x + (2) = -2 we take on the first equation and replace 2 on a coordinate for y
2x = -2 - 2
2x = -4
2 2
x = -2 (-2,2)
x y
Annual salary = 47,980
If you are paid biweekly, you are paid 26 times per year, so
biweekly pay = 47,980 / 26 =

-10 < x - 9
Reverse the equation to get x on the left side"
x-9>-10
Add 9 to both sides:
X >-1
Answer: x > -1
