Answer:
B) 5x+15y=30
5x-5y=10
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we solve the top equations by addition. Multiply the first one by -4.
-4x-12y=-24
4x-8y=4
This equals -20y=-20, so y=1. Now we put that back into either equation and find that x=3. So the solution set is (3,1)
Plugging those into each of the possible choices, we find that the answer is
B) 5x+15y=30. 5(3)+15(1)=30 15+15=30. 30=30 CHECK
5x-5y=10 5(3)-5(1)=10. 15-5=10. 10=10. CHECK
Let x = number of students in each of the remaining rows
266 = (10 x 20) + (5 x 8) + 2x
266 - (10 x 20) - (5 x 8) = 2x
266 - 200 - 40 = 2x
26 = 2x
x = 26/2
x = 13
