Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute x = - 8 and y = - 7 into the equation

If both sides are equal then (- 8, - 7) is a solution

left side = 3x + 10 = 3(- 8) + 10 = - 24 + 10 = - 14

right side = 2y = 2(- 7) = - 14

Since both sides are equal then (- 8, - 7) is a solution to the equation

Answer:

18 clips for $7.38 is the best value deal.

Step-by-step explanation:

An office is restocking office supplies. The table below shows the cost for the number of boxes of paperclips. We need to find what is the best value is.

To find the best value for money we can check the price of each paperclip.

To check the price of each paper clip we can use the following formula:

$\text{Price of each paper clip} =\frac{\text { price of the box }} {{\text {number of clips in the box }}}$

Now we can calculate the best value deal as follows:

$\text{Price of each clip is box 1}=\frac{7.38}{18}=0.41$$

$\text{Price of each clip is box 2}=\frac{15.39}{27}=0.57$$

$\text{Price of each clip is box 3}=\frac{13.50}{30}=0.45$$

$\text{Price of each clip is box 4}=\frac{18.36}{36}=0.51$$

$\text{Price of each clip is box 5}=\frac{18.80}{40}=0.47$$

So, from looking at the prices of each paperclip we can conclude that the 18 clips for $7.38 is the best value deal.
