The question seems to be pointing towards a multiple choice response but I will do my best. The first equation would be 15x+12y=9.30 and the second would be 10x+4y=4.60, x represents flour and y represents sugar.
Hope this helps.

Step-by-step explanation:
Put it in the calculator
The answer is c, 2.To find this, look on the graph for a point with the y value of -1. (2,-1) is the solution.
Answer:
5 pigs
Step-by-step explanation:
A farmhouse shelters 16 animals, some are pigs, and some are ducks. Altogether there are 42 legs. How many pigs are there?
Let us represent:
Number of pigs = x
Number of ducks = y
Our system of equations is given as:
A farmhouse shelters 16 animals, some are pigs, and some are ducks.
x + y = 16...... Equation 1
x = 16 - y
Altogether there are 42 legs.
Ducks have 2 legs(feet) , pigs have 4 legs,
4x + 2y = 42..... Equation 2
We substitute
16 - y for x in Equation 2
Hence:
4(16 - y) + 2y = 42
64 - 4y + 2y = 42
Collect like terms
- 4y + 2y = 42 - 64
-2y =- 22
y = -22/-2
y = 11 ducks
Solving for x.
x = 16 - y
x = 16 - 11
x = 5 pigs
Therefore, we have 5 pigs
