A) The equations are shown on the attached graph.
x = juice box cost
y = water bottle cost
B) Kara's proposed solution satisfies the first equation, but not the second one.
C) The solution is shown on the attached graph.

As a bonus, you get a graph for the other problem you posted. Please note this graph has some issues. Wherever there's a solid line ⌝ or ⌞ the actual shape of the graph should be the opposite one of these.
Find the midpoint of (1,-4) and (7,1) to find the rest stop. To do this add the x values and divide by 2, then add the y values and divide by 2. (4,-1.5) is the midpoint.
To find the distance, use the distance formula then multiply the result by 5.38. The distance is 42 miles
9 pairs = 18 people
24 - 18 = 6
6 divided by 2 = 3 pairs
3 magnets for 3 pairs is 9 magnets.

yeah
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(1) 2x - 6y = -12
(2) x + 2y = 14
There is a -6y and a +2y. Since they have opposite signs, I'll try to eliminate the y terms. (That's my choice. There is more than one way to solve these.)
Multiply eq. (2) by 3:
3x + 6y = 42
Then add the result to eq. (1) to eliminate the y terms:
2x - 6y = -12
3x + 6y = 42
------------------
5x = 30, so x = 6
Now plug the value of x into eq. (2) and solve for y:
6 + 2y = 14
2y = 8
y = 4
Why did I use eq. (2) to solve for y? Because it's less work. I could have used eq. (1) instead:
2(6) - 6y = -12
12 - 6y = -12
-6y = -24
y = 4
More than one way to solve.
