Hi Kristian

a - 3b = 22
a = b - 2

We need to solve a = b -2 for a
First, we need to substitute b - 2 for a in a - 3b = 22
a - 3b = 22
b - 2 - 3b = 22
-2b - 2 = 22
 -2b = 22 + 2
-2b = 24
b = 24/-2
b = -12

Now substitute -12 for b in a = b - 2
a = b -2
a= -12 - 2
a= -14

Thus, the solution is a = -14 and b = -12

The correct option is the last one (-14,-12)

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

x ≥ 5, 8.25x + 10 = 175, and x = 20 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Lin works x hours per week.

Now given that Lin’s job pays $8.25 an hour plus $10 of transportation allowance each week.

And she has to work at least 5 hours a week to $175 per week.

So, the inequality that can be written from the above condition is x ≥ 5 .......(1)

And the equation that can be written that  

8.25x + 10 = 175 ....... (2)  

Now, fro equation (2) we can write x = 20 hours which satisfies equation (1).
