Answer:

A plain pizza is $10.50 and a pepperoni pizza is $12.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a system of equations where x is the price of a pepperoni pizza and y is the price of a plain pizza:

3x + 2y = 58.5

2x + 4y = 67

Solve by elimination by multiplying the top equation by -2:

-6x - 4y = -117

2x + 4y = 67

Add these together and solve for x:

-4x = -50

x = 12.5

So, a pepperoni pizza is $12.50. Plug in 12.5 as x into one of the equations, and solve for y:

2x + 4y = 67

2(12.5) + 4y = 67

25 + 4y = 67

4y = 42

y = 10.5

So, a plain pizza is $10.50.

A plain pizza is $10.50 and a pepperoni pizza is $12.50

I think the answer is B.
6(-3)=-18, and y=2
so 6x-y=-18-2=-20

Determine whether y varies directly with x. If so, find the constant of variation k.
kumpel [21]
Direct variation is y=kx, inverse variation is y=k/x....

-5y=-2x divide both sides by -5

y=2.5x

So this is a direct variation with a constant of 2.5
