Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
So in this systems of equations, we know the prices of the items, so the coefficients will represent how many Mary is getting of that item. So you can represent amount of bread as the variable b and the amount of milk as the variable m. On the right will be the total amount spent, since multiplying the price by how much you buy should get you the price
So since at store A, she spends 44.20 and bread costs 2.20 and milk costs 3.60 you get

Since at store B, she spends 44.70 and bread costs 2.50 and milk costs 3.40 you get the equation:

Plug in the possible answers into the equation and solve for x. x=0
We know that
The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side (Triangle Inequality Theorem)
Let
A------> Lincoln, NE
B------> Boulder, CO
C------> third city
we know that
in the triangle ABC
AB=500 miles
BC=200 miles
AC=x
Applying the Triangle Inequality Theorem
1) 500+200 > x------> 700 > x------> x < 700 miles
2) 200+x > 500----> x > 500-200------> x > 300 miles
the solution for x is
300 < x < 700
the interval is------> (300,700)
the possible distances, d, in miles, between Lincoln, NE, and the third city, are in the range between 300 and 700 miles
