Step 1

Let

x-------> represents the number of tubes of paint Catherine can buy

y------> the money to spend for a painting canvas

we know that

y> 20 ------> inequality A

y=54-8.5x ------> equation B

substitute equation B in inequality A

54-8.5x > 20

therefore

<u>the answer part a) is</u>

The inequality that best represents this scenario is 54-8.5x > 20

Step 2

Solve the inequality

54-8.5x > 20

54-20 >8.5x

34 >8.5x

34/8.5 >x

4 >x ---------> x < 4

therefore

<u>the answer Part b) is the option C</u>

less than 4

The answer is B. She is buying 4 paint tubes. 4 x 8.5 = 34. 34 - 20 = 14, which is less than 54.

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

<h2>k = -1</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the point (5, k) and the equation 2x + y = 9.

Put the coordinates of the point ot the equation:

x = 5, y = k

2(5) + k = 9

10 + k = 9         <em>subtract 10 from both sides</em>

10 - 10 + k = 9 - 10

k = -1
