Let x be the number of cases of paper towels and y be the number of cases of soap. The system of linear equation that would best represent the given is,
x + y = 10
12x + 15y = 129
The values of x and y are 7 and 3.
Sarah both 7 cases of paper towel.
It is not possible for Sarah to buy exactly 20 bottles because first of all the cases contains only 12 bottles and 20 is not divisible by 12.

Answer:
D. (-3, -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The equations have different coefficients for x and y, so will have one solution. The solutions offered are easily tested in either equation.
Using (x, y) = (-2, -3):
x = y -1 ⇒ -2 = -3 -1 . . . . False
Using (x, y) = (-3, -2):
x = y -1 ⇒ -3 = -2 -1 . . . .True
2x = 3y ⇒ 2(-3) = 3(-2) . . . . True
The solution is (-3, -2).

If you'd like to solve the set of equations, substitution for x works nicely.
2(y -1) = 3y
2y -2 = 3y . . eliminate parentheses
-2 = y . . . . . . subtract 2y
x = -2 -1 = -3
The solution is (x, y) = (-3, -2).
Answer:
The distance between the hose and the point (P) is 0.9 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we have
Speed of rowing the boat = 3 mph
Speed of waling = 4.5 mph
Since the speed of walking is more than that of to row the boat, the location of where he should dock his boat in order to minimize the total time he would need to reach the house is the shortest distance across the river to the house
Therefore the location of the point (P) should be directly opposite the house across the water and the distance id 0.9 miles.
Graph the inequality by finding the boundary line, then shading the appropriate area.
y>2x-5
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
According to Euclidean theorem
m^2 = 4×16
m^2 = 64
m = 8
