Answer:

Notebooks cost $2.75 and pens cost $1.10.

He can also buy 3 notebooks.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, we need to create two equations given each of the situations.

3n + 2p = 10.45

4n + 6p = 17.60

Now to solve for n, multiply the top equation by -3 and add together.

-9n - 6p = -31.35

4n + 6p = 17.60

----------------------

-5n = -13.75

n = 2.75

Now that we have the value of notebooks, we can find the amount for pens using either equation.

3n + 2p = 10.45

3(2.75) + 2p = 10.45

8.25 + 2p = 10.45

2p = 2.20

p = 1.10

Finally, to find the number of notebooks that he can purchase, find the cost of a notebook with 3 pens.

n + 3p

2.75 + 3(1.10)

2.75 + 3.30

6.05

Now divide 22 by that number

22/6.05 = 3.63

Since we can't have fractional notebooks, we round down to 3.

Answer:

If the terms on the left hand side of the equals are the same as the terms on the right hand side of the equals, there will be infinite solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

If the terms on the left hand side of the equals are the same as the terms on the right hand side of the equals, there will be infinite solutions

12x+24x +18 = 36x +24 -6

Combining like terms

36x+18 = 36x +18

Subtracting 36x from each side

18 = 18

This is always true so  it does not matter what x is, the left had side will equal the right hand side

Which system of linear inequalities is represented by the graph?
azamat

Answer:

The system of linear inequalities represented by the graph is:

y > (2/3) x + 3 and y <= - (1/3) x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

In the graph we can see the region on and below the red line, and above the black dashed line.

1) The red line goes through the points:

P1=(0,2)=(x1,y1)→x1=0, y1=2

P2=(3,1)=(x2,y2)→x2=3, y2=1

The slope of this line is:

s=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Replacing the known values:

s=(1-2)/(3-0)

s=(-1)/(3)

s=-(1/3)

The equation of the red line is:

y-y1=s(x-x1)

y-2=-(1/3)(x-0)

y-2=-(1/3)x

y-2+2=-(1/3)x+2

y=-(1/3)x+2

The area on and below the red line is: y<=-(1/3)x+2

2) The black dashed line goes through the points:

P1=(-3,1)=(x1,y1)→x1=-3, y1=1

P2=(0,3)=(x2,y2)→x2=0, y2=3

The slope of this line is:

s=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Replacing the known values:

s=(3-1)/(0-(-3))

s=(2)/(0+3)

s=(2)/(3)

s=(2/3)

The equation of the red line is:

y-y2=s(x-x2)

y-3=(2/3)(x-0)

y-3=(2/3)x

y-3+3=(2/3)x+3

y=(2/3)x+3

The area above the black dashed line is: y>(2/3)x+3

Then, the system of linear inequalities represented by the graph is:

y>(2/3)x+3 and y<=-(1/3)x+2
