10t = b - 4
12b+8t = $348
This is a system of equations. I’ll be solving through substitution.
In the first equation. solving for b (the easier variable to isolate) gives you:
b = 10t + 4
Substitute this into the second equation:
12(10t+4) +8t = 348
120t+48+8t = 348
128t = 300
t = 2.34375 —> round it to the nearest cent to get 2.34 dollars
b = 10t+4
b = 10(2.34)+4
b = 27.4 dollars

Answer: -6/5</h3>
Explanation:
The blue diagonal line goes through the two points (0,2) and (5,-4). These are shown as the dark blue enlarged points. You can pick any other points you want that are on the diagonal line, though these are the easiest as they stand out the most.
Use the slope formula to find the slope through these points
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (-4-2)/(5-0)
m = (-6)/(5)
m = -6/5
The negative slope means the line goes downhill as you move from left to right along the diagonal line.
elevation in feet = 8.56(140) + 674
elevation in feet = 1872.4
Round to the nearest whole number: 1872
Answer: 1872
