Answer: Choice C) -11

-----------------------------------

Explanation:

The first equation given is y = 3 - 1/2x
In other words, y is the same as 3 - 1/2x. 
We can replace y in the second equation with 3 - 1/2x
This is known as substitution (think of a substitute teacher who is a temporary replacement for your teacher)

Doing this leads to...
3x+4y = 1
3x+4*y = 1
3x+4*( y ) = 1
3x+4*( 3 - 1/2x ) = 1 <<--- y has been replaced with 3-1/2x
3x+4*(3) +4*(-1/2x) = 1
3x+12-2x = 1
3x-2x+12 = 1
x+12 = 1
x+12-12 = 1-12 <<-- subtracting 12 from both sides
x = -11
Which is why the answer is choice C) -11

Maslowich

Answer:

$11.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the number of hours she works by how much she gets paid per hour.

800

Multiply 50 times 7 (50 being the amount charged for her kid and 7 being the days of the week)

350

Subtract the 350 from the 800

450

Divide the 450 by the number of hours worked per week

450/40

Answer: 11.25

So Sally actually makes 11.25 per hour.

taurus [48]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The origin (x,y) is (0,0)

If its moved four units right you must add 4 to the x coordinate giving you (4,0)

Then it is moved up by 5, so you must add 5 to the y coordinate giving you

(4,5)
