<h3>Answer: choice D. (5, 28)</h3>

====================================================

Explanation:

The idea is to plug in each pair of coordinates and see if you get a true equation. Choice A does not work because

y = 6x-2

20 = 6(6)-2 ... plugged in x = 6 and y = 20

20 = 36-2

20 = 34

we have a false equation. So this shows choice A does not work.

--------

However, choice D does work since...

y = 6x-2

28 = 6(5)-2 .... plug in (x,y) = (5,28)

28 = 30-2

28 = 28

Put another way, if we plugged x = 5 into the equation, then we'd get y = 28. Therefore, showing (5,28) is a point on the line y = 6x-2.

There is no graph in your question. If p is number of reams of paper, and c is number of ink cartridges, then

3p + c = 234, wich p and c natural numbers (including 0)

This means that 13 ink cartridges and 0 paper will satisfy the end amount, but also 0 ink cartridges and 39 paper. There are 14 combinations possible.

Answer:

The bearing needed to navigate from island B to island C is approximately 38.213º.

Step-by-step explanation:

The geometrical diagram representing the statement is introduced below as attachment, and from Trigonometry we determine that bearing needed to navigate from island B to C by the Cosine Law:

$AC^{2} = AB^{2}+BC^{2}-2\cdot AB\cdot BC\cdot \cos \theta$ (1)
