Statement : Val spent $ 34 for the 2 items
contradiction : Neither of the 2 items that Val bought cost more then $ 15
think about it....if neither of them cost more then 15....lets say they cost 15 each...then there is no way he spent $ 34.....he would spend at most $ 30
Answer:
Mirandah added 5x and 9y, which she shouldn't do because one is y and the other is x, meaning they don't match.
There is no simplifying the equation. It should stay 5x + 9y - 4
If wrong, I apologize, but this should be correct.
Simplify y=8x+2x+2: y=10x+2
Same as equation y=10x+2
Therefore it has infinitely many solutions
