Answer:
a. (-1/2, 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
The coefficients of x have opposite signs, so the x-terms can be eliminated by adding the two equations.
(2y -12x) +(3y +12x) = (16) +(9)
5y = 25 . . . . . . simplify
y = 5 . . . . . . . . .divide by 5
This matches only answer choice A.

<em>Check</em>
The other part of answer choice A is x = -1/2. We can test this to make sure it works:
2(5) -12(-1/2) = 16
10 + 6 = 16 . . . . . . true, the selected answer works OK
C I think I hope I’m right but it should be c
Answer:
The most tickets were written on Saturday .On Saturday 325 tickets were issued
Step-by-step explanation:
The average number of traffic tickets issued in a city on any given day Sunday-Saturday can be approximated by

Where x represents the number of days after Sunday
T(x) represents the number of traffic tickets issued.
Sunday = x=0
Monday = x=1
Tuesday = x=2
Wednesday = x=3
Thursday = x =4
Friday = x=5
Saturday = x=6
Substitute x= 0

On Sunday 37 tickets were issued
Substitute x= 1

On Monday 115 tickets were issued
Substitute x= 2

On Tuesday 181 tickets were issued
Substitute x= 3

On Wednesday 235 tickets were issued
Substitute x= 4

On Thursday 277 tickets were issued
Substitute x= 5

On Friday 307 tickets were issued
Substitute x= 6

On Saturday 325 tickets were issued
Hence the most tickets were written on Saturday .On Saturday 325 tickets were issued
