1/2 because 36 is half of 72. You could also divide the numbers by 12 and you will get 3/6 which is the same as 1/2.
To check which ordered pair (point) is in the solution set of the system of given linear inequalities y>x, y<x+1; we just need to plug given points into both inequalities and check if that point satisfies both inequalities or not. If any point satisfies both inequalities then that point will be in solution.
I will show you calculation for (5,-2)
plug into y>x
-2>5
which is clearly false.
plug into y<x+1
-2<5+1
or -2<6
which is also false.
hence (5,-2) is not in the solution.
Same way if you test all the given points then you will find that none of the given points are satisfying both inequalities.
Hence answer will be "No Solution from given choices".

A) Amanda's method is linear because the number of minutes increased by an equal number every week.</span>
common difference is 10.
1st week 0 + 10 = 10
2nd week 10 + 10 = 20
3rd week 20 + 10 = 30
4th week 30 + 10 = 40
Billy's method is exponential:
5(2)^x
1st week 5(2⁰) = 5(1) = 5
2nd week 5(2¹) = 5(2) = 10
3rd week 5(2²) = 5(4) = 20
4th week 5(2³) = 5(8) = 40
B) Because 4/24 is the amount of cars
