I think it’s going to be B.
For this problem you have yo set up two equations.
White shirts = w Yellow shirts = y
1st: w + y = 21
2nd: 9.95w + 11.50y = 235.30
Now we're going to do system of equations using substitution.
If w + y = 21, then y = 21 - w
If y = 21 - w, then you can substitute this in the second equation for y.
9.95w + 11.50(21 - w) = 235.30
9.95w + 241.5 - 11.50w = 235.30
-1.55w + 241.5 = 235.30
-1.55w = -6.2
w = 4, so 4 whites shirt were sold.
Now I'm finding out how many yellow shirts were sold using one of the two equations at the top.
w + y = 21
4 + y = 21
y = 17
So 17 yellow shirts were sold and 4 white shirts were sold.
x² - 14x + 46 = 0
subtract 46 from both-side
x² - 14x = -46
Add the square of the half of the co-efficient of x
x² - 14x + (-7)² = -46 + 7²
(x-7)² = -46 + 49
(x-7)² =3
Take the square root of both-side
x-7 = ±√3
x-7= ±1.732
Add 7 to both-side of the equation.
x= 7 ± 1.732
Eithe x= 7 + 1.732 or x= 7 - 1.732
x=8.732 or x=5.268
Therefore x = 8.732 , 5.268
Your answer would be C. x = 6, y = 5
This is because if you plug the numbers in to the inequality, we get:
(4 × 5) ≥ (3 × 6) + 2
20 ≥ 18 + 2
20 ≥ 20
which is correct.
I hope this helps!
