The first thing we know is that all the answers equal 99, so we cannot cross any answer off, however, what we want to know is what answer (after distribution) looks like 36 + 63...

A.) 11(3 + 6) > 33 + 66

Does 33+66 look like 36+63?

B.) 9(4 + 7) > 36 + 63

Does 36+63 look like 36+63?

YES

C.) 11(4 + 5) > 44 + 55

Does 44+55 look like 36+63?

D.) 3(15 + 18) > 45 + 54

Does 45+54 look like 36+63?

So...

The answer is: B.) 9(4 + 7)

Solve the system of eqautions <br> y=x2-5x+7 , y=2x+1

IgorC [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of equations is given as

y=x^2-5x+7 - - - - - - - - - - 1

y=2x+1 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 2

We would equate equation 1 to equation 2, it becomes

x^2-5x+7 = 2x+1

x^2-5x+7- 2x - 1 = 0

x^2 - 5x - 2x + 7 - 1 = 0

x^2 - 7x + 6 = 0

We would use the factorization method of solving quadratic equations.

x^2 - 6x - x + 6 = 0

x(x - 6) - 1(x - 6)

(x - 6)(x - 1) = 0

x - 6 = 0 or x - 1 = 0

x = 6 or x = 1

Substituting both values of x into equation 2, it becomes

For x = 6,

y=2×6 + 1 = 12 + 1 = 13

y = 13

For x = 1,

y=2 × 1 +1 = 2 + 1 = 3

y = 3
