If 2x+y=5, then y=5-2x, so he substituted 5-2x correctly.
x+4x=5x, so he combined like terms correctly.
If 5x-10=10, then 5x=10+10 -> 5x=20, so he subtracted 10 from the right side instead of adding 10 to the right side.
The answer is C.
Here's the correct solution:
x + x + 3 + x - 8
3x - 5 = 55
3x = 60, x = 20
Since we put Julie as x, we put Janet at x + 3, and the brother is x - 8 (8 years younger)
Julie is 20
Janet (x + 3) = (20 + 3) = 23
Brother(x - 8) = (20 - 8) = 12
x+y≤30 and 2.50x+2.75y≥44 are the inequalities that model given situation.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Number of banana breads and nut breads to bake = at most 30
At most 30 means the amount cannot exceed 30.
Selling price of each banana bread = $2.50
Selling price of each nut bread = $2.75
Amount to make = $44 at least
At least 44 means that the amount cannot be less than 44.
Let,
x represent the number of loaves of banana bread to be sold
y represent the number of loaves of nut bread to be sold
x+y≤30
2.50x+2.75y≥44
x+y≤30 and 2.50x+2.75y≥44 are the inequalities that model given situation.

Answer:
Option 3 (C)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the scores of the students: 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 6, 8, 10, 10, 12, 15, 18
To find the box plot that represents the data set, we need to find:
Min, Q1, median, Q3, and Max, which are all represented on a box plot.
Min = 3
Max = 18
Median = the average of the 6th and 7th data value = (6+8)/2 = 14/2 = 7
Q1 = the average of the 3rd and 4th data values = (4+5)/2 = 4.5
Q3 = the average of the 9th and 10th data values = (10+12)/2 = 11
The box plot that closely represented all these values is the box plot in option 3.
