There are three states that a system of linear equations can be in. Intersecting, parallel, and overlapping. Intersecting results in one solution, parallel results in none, and overlapping makes all solutions that are on the line correct. The question says that there are infinite solutions, so it must be overlapping. We can immediately rule out the first one because only points that lie on the line can be solutions. Since we know that the system has all of the solutions shown, 2 has to be true. 3 is the same idea. When you plug the x value (20) into the equation, you get the y value (58) meaning that it must be true. 5 is stated above.

Renting a car costs $35.50 per day, plus 40¢ per mile. If a customer paid $131 for a 2-day rental, how many miles was the car dr

qwelly [4]

Subtract the fee from the total:

131- 35.50 = 95.50

Now divide that by the price per mile:

95.50/ 0.40 = 238.75

They drove 238.74 miles
