I'm assuming that % means $:
8.95*2 = 17.9
23.65 - 17.9 = 5.74
The cost of the paint was $5.74
The slope of the line is negative. Hope this helps!
Yes. That point is in the solution space.
_____
You can also figure out algebraically whether the point satisfies the inequality
y < 2x + 10
Substitute the numbers
3 < 2·2 + 10
3 < 14 . . . . . . . . . . . True. (2, 3) is a solution
Can you explain the question more I can’t really tell what the options or the answer really is
