Answer:
Yes, Maureen is correct. If a system of linear equations has three equations, then there could be exactly two solutions to the system. This is because, in general, a system of linear equations with three variables will have three equations. However, if two of the equations are the same, then there will only be two equations. In this case, there will be two solutions to the system.
Step-by-step explanation:
When given two end points of a segment say for example (X1,Y1) and (X2,Y2) to get the midpoint of the line or the segment we use the formula,
midpoint =( (X1+X2)/2 , (Y1+Y2)/2 )
therefore in our case the midpoint is (0,1)
hence, (-2 + X2)/ 2 = 0, thus X2 = 2
and (3 + Y2)/ 2= 1 , thus Y2 = -1
Therefore the other end point will be (2,-1). Thus none of the above paper can be used as the other end point.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 160 hours
============================================================
Explanation:
He earns $10.00 an hour. Let x be the number of hours worked in a month. So 10x represents how much he earns after working x hours.
If he spends $800 per month on fixed expenses, and wants this to be 50% of his total earnings, then this must mean that the other 50% is for other things (eg: spending on a vacation or putting it to savings). So his goal is to earn 800+800 = 1600 dollars per month.
Set 10x equal to this and solve for x
10x = 1600
x = 1600/10
x = 160
He needs to work 160 hours a month.
-------------------------------
Extra info:
Divide 160 over 4 (the approximate number of weeks in a month) and we see that he'll need to work 160/4 = 40 hours a week
If he only works Monday through Friday, that's 5 days of the week. So he'll put in 40/5 = 8 hours per day.
So his goal of working 160 hours per month is reasonable. Keep in mind that this doesn't include factors like him missing time from work due to being sick (unless he has paid sick leave).
