1 yard = 3 feet
2 yards = 6 feet
2 feet * 3 = 6 feet
so 5.5 ft * 3 = 16.5 feet, so pole is 16 feet 6 inches
The matrix represents the system:
-3x+5y=15
2x+3y=-10, which is choice c.
We can see it more clearly from the way we multiply matrices, as follows:
![\[ \left[ {\begin{array}{cc} -3 & 5 \\ \ 2 & 3 \\ \end{array} } \right] \] \cdot \[ \left[ {\begin{array}{c} x \\ y \\ \end{array} } \right] \]= \left[ {\begin{array}{c} -3\cdot x+5\cdot y \\ 2\cdot x+3\cdot y \\ \end{array} } \right] \]= \[ \left[ {\begin{array}{c} 15 \\ -10 \\ \end{array} } \right] \]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5C%5B%0A%20%20%5Cleft%5B%20%7B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D%0A%20%20%20-3%20%26%205%20%5C%5C%0A%20%20%20%20%5C%202%20%20%26%203%20%5C%5C%0A%20%20%5Cend%7Barray%7D%20%7D%20%5Cright%5D%0A%5C%5D%20%5Ccdot%20%20%5C%5B%0A%20%20%5Cleft%5B%20%7B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bc%7D%0A%20%20%20x%20%5C%5C%0A%20%20%20%20y%20%5C%5C%0A%20%20%5Cend%7Barray%7D%20%7D%20%5Cright%5D%0A%5C%5D%3D%20%5Cleft%5B%20%7B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bc%7D%0A%20%20%20-3%5Ccdot%20x%2B5%5Ccdot%20y%20%5C%5C%0A%20%20%20%202%5Ccdot%20x%2B3%5Ccdot%20y%20%5C%5C%0A%20%20%5Cend%7Barray%7D%20%7D%20%5Cright%5D%0A%5C%5D%3D%20%5C%5B%20%5Cleft%5B%20%7B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bc%7D%2015%20%5C%5C%20-10%20%5C%5C%20%5Cend%7Barray%7D%20%7D%20%5Cright%5D%20%5C%5D)

Answer:
pumpkin because it got the most sold
Answer:
180 coins
Explanation:
N = number of nickels (no nickels spent)
D = number of dimes initially saved
D' = number of dimes left after spending
1) N = D + 43
2) D' = D - 17
3) N = 2*D' = 2*(D - 17)
Set equations 1) and 3) equal to each other and solve for D:
D + 43 = 2*(D - 17)
D + 43 = 2*D - 34
D = 43 + 34 = 77
N = D + 43 = 77 + 43 = 120 nickels left
D' = D - 17 = 77 - 17 = 60 dimes left
Total coins left = 120 + 60 = 180 coins (I hope this is not too confusing for you)
