Answer:

One notebook is $3.00

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 2y = $12

1x + 3y = $11

Add -3y to the second equation

x = 11 - 3y

Substitute ( 11 - 3y ) for x in 3x + 2y = 12

3 ( 11 - 3y ) + 2y = 12

33 - 9y + 2y = 12

33 - 7y = 12

Add -33 to each side

-7y = -21

Divide each side by -7

y = 3

substitute 3 for y in x = 11 - 3y

x = 11 - 3(3)

x = 11 -9

x = 2

One notebook is $3.00

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

the reason why is because if you put 3 dollars in for the notebooks right you have 3x3=9 and that one pen will be 2 dollars. Now you have 3×2=6 and then the two notebooks will be 6 and you add that and get 12. Hope this helps

What expression is equivalent to 2^-3/2^-5?​
mr_godi [17]
2^2 , or 4
since the exponents have the same base, we can subtract the exponent of the numerator by the exponent in the denominator.

So 2^-3 - 2^-5 = 2^(-3-(-5)) = 2^2

The new exponent is 2 because -3-(-5) is equal to 2.

Fofino [41]

\frac{6}{5}  \times base \times  \frac{1}{2}  =  \frac{2}{5}  \\ base =  \frac{2}{5}  \times 2 \times  \frac{5}{6}  \\ base  =  \frac{2}{3}
The answer is C 2/3

Which one of the following will result in movement along the demand curve for clothing as opposed to a shift in the demand curve
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

d) Clothing prices decline because manufacturers shift to production in countries with lower wages.

Step-by-step explanation:

Demand is the quantity of goods or services consumers are able and willing and able to buy at a given price and at a particular time.

Movement along the demand curve also known as change in quantity demanded is an increase or decrease in the quantity demanded of goods or services due to change in the price of the good or service itself.

It is important to note that the only factor causing movement along the demand curve is change in the price of the product.
