Answer:
1) X stands for individual acts and y, group acts. 2) Each scenario describes a different period in minutes, but each one respecting their different amounts (individual and group acts). 3) 
Step-by-step explanation:
Completing with what was found:
<em> 1) Here is a summary of the scenario your classmate presented for the talent show:Main show The main show will last two hours and will include twelve individual acts and six group acts.Final show The final show will last 30 minutes and will include the top four individual acts and the top group act.The equations he came up with are: 12x+ 6y= 120, 4x+ y= 30</em>
1. What do x and y represent in this situation?
X stands for individual acts and y, group acts.
Besides that, In the system of equation, they represent the time for x, and the time for y.
2. Do you agree that your classmate set up the equations correctly? Explain why or why not.
Yes, that's right. Each scenario describes a different period in minutes, but each one respecting their different amounts (individual and group acts). Either for 120 minutes or 30 minutes length. And their sum totalizing the whole period.
3. Solving the system by Elimination

Answer:
yes
Step-by-step explanation:
distributing gets you 8x+ 12= 2x-2 +6x+14
8x+12=8x+12
when both sides are simplified, they are equal to each other. This means that there IS a value of x that would make the perimeters equal
not sure what the drop down answers are so hope this helps
Answer:
y=-2/3x-2
Step-by-step explanation:
slope= -2/3
y=-2/3x+b
enter the given points
2=4+b
b=-2
y=-2/3x-2
$5 each car
3 hours = 12 cars
÷3 ÷3
1 hours = 4 cars
×8 ×8
8 hours = 32 cars
32 cars × $5 per car =
$160
They earned $160 in 8 hours, from washing 32 cars.
