Bill's statement does not make sense because it is incorrect:
7/12 customers bought pretzels
3/10 OF those customers bought low salt pretzels (x)
3/10 of 7/12 = x
(the word "OF" normally refers to multiplication and he variable x represents low salt pretzels)
3/10 times 7/12 = x
21/120 = x
Simplify: 7/40
To be correct, Bill would have to say that 7/40 of the customers bought low salt pretzels, but instead he had said 7/30.

The right question is that the lowest altitute is 3^8 feet
You are told that the highest altitude is 3 times the lowest altitude =>
highest altitude = 3 * lowest altitude = 3 * 3^8 feet.
Now you use the ruel of mutiplication of powers with the same base: copy the base and sum the exponents => 3 * 3^8 = 3 ^(1+8) = 3^9.
Note: remember that 3 = 3^1.
Answer: 3^9 feet
The answer would be (5, -2). This is because when you plug in the respective values in for x and y into the equation 3x - 3y = 21, you get 21, which is the desired answer.
3x - 3y = 21
3(5) - 3(-2) = 21
15 + 6 = 21
21 = 21
Hope this helped!
