No, it is not possible for Eric to have spent 35 minutes playing basketball if he plays for a total of exactly 95
<h3>How to form a linear equation</h3>
Let the time taken to play basketball be "x"
Let the time taken to play volleyball be "y"
According to the information given, Eric plays basketball and volleyball for a total of 95 minutes every day, then;
x + y = 95
If he plays basketball for 25 minutes long, then;
x = 25
The pair of linear equations that represents the statement are:
x + y = 95
x = 25
The time it takes Eric to play volleyball every day is expressed as:
y = 95 - x
y = 95 - 25
y = 70 minutes
No, it is not possible for Eric to have spent 35 minutes playing basketball if he plays for a total of exactly 95

Solve how much the salesperson makes in option A and use that value as the 5% of the total of sales to solve for option B
Plug the points into the equation.
Ex. y=3x-5
(X,y)
1. (5,10): 10=3(5)-5
15-5=10; point 1 is valid
-1=3(-2)-5
-1=-6-5
-1 does not equal -11
Point 2 is not valid
Same process for letter B
Hey there!
Here's your answer: the perimeter of the redone yard would be ~193 feet
Hope this helps!
Notice that
13 - 9 = 4
17 - 13 = 4
so it's likely that each pair of consecutive terms in the sum differ by 4. This means the last term, 149, is equal to 9 plus some multiple of 4 :
149 = 9 + 4k
140 = 4k
k = 140/4
k = 35
This tells you there are 35 + 1 = 36 terms in the sum (since the first term is 9 plus 0 times 4, and the last term is 9 plus 35 times 4). Among the given options, only the first choice contains the same amount of terms.
Put another way, we have
but if we make the sum start at k = 1, we need to replace every instance of k with k - 1, and accordingly adjust the upper limit in the sum.
