Answer: Mary had six pieces of candy but her mother didn’t want her having too much sugar. She took away half of her candy. How many pieces does she have now?
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
B: 4 solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
Combining the two equations results in 2x² = 52, or x² = 26.
This equation has two solutions: x = ±√26.
As before, x² = 26. If we substitute 26 for x² in the 1st equation, we get:
26 - 4y² = 16, or 4y² = 10, or y = ±√5/2. Again: two solutions.
If we take x to be +√26, y could be ±√(5/2).
Check: is ( √26, √(5/2) ) a solution of the system?
Subbing these values into the first equation, we get:
26 - 4(5/2) = 16. Is this true?
Then 10 = 10. Yes.
Through three more checks, we find that this system has FOUR solutions.

divide $3.20 to get the cost per ounce, and multiply it by 6 to get the price for 6 ounces.
6 ounces = $1.92
hope this helps!! :)
The correct answer is NO LINEAR FACTORS (option A ).
