Answer:

the cost of brand x dog food is $2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let brand X dog food be represented as A

Let Brand Y dog food be represented as B

3 bags of Brand X dog food and 4 bags of Brand Y dog food costs $18,

3A+4B=18

4 bags of Brand X dog food and 3 bags of Brand Y dog food costs

$17.

4A+3B= 17

  • 3A+4B=18
  • 4A+3B= 17

Using Elimination method

Multiply

  • 3A+4B=18 by coefficient of B in equ ii (3)  = 9A+12B=54
  • 4A+3B= 17 by coefficient of B in equ i (4)  = 16A+12B=68
  • subtract equation i from equation ii, since sign is the same in both equations
  • 9A+12B-(16A+12B)= 54-68
  • open bracket
  • 9A+12B-16A-12B= 54-68= -14
  • 9A-16A+12B-12B= -14
  • -7A= -14
  • divide both sides by -7

A = -14/-7= 2

Since the brand X dog food is represented as A

the cost of brand x dog food is $2

Which set of ordered pairs could represent a function? (2, 3), (2, 2), (2, 4), (2, 9), (2, –2) (1, 5), (2, 6), (1, 6), (4, 5), (
Ratling [72]

Given:

The set of ordered pairs in the options:

(a) (2, 3), (2, 2), (2, 4), (2, 9), (2, –2)

(b) (1, 5), (2, 6), (1, 6), (4, 5), (1, 4)

(c) (1, 0), (2, 0), (1, 3), (4, 3), (5, 7)

(d) (5, 1), (7, 3), (9, 5), (11, 7), (13, 9)

To find:

The set of ordered pairs that could represent a function.

Solution:

A set of ordered pairs represent a function, if there exist unique output (y-value) for each input (x-value).

In option (a) we have, five output values y=3,2,4,9,-2 for single input x=2. So, it is not a function.

In option (b) we have, three output values y=5,6,4 for single input x=1. So, it is not a function.

In option (c) we have, two output values y=0,3 for single input x=1. So, it is not a function.

In option (d), all inputs has unique output.

Therefore, the correct option is (d).
