18. The equations 6x + 5y 300 and 3x + 7y = 285 represent the
money collected from selling gift
baskets in a school fundraising event. If x represents
the cost for each snack gift basket and y represents
the cost for each chocolate gift basket, what is the
cost for each chocolate gift basket?
A) $20 B) $25 C) $30 D) $54
PLS HELP ME ASAP!

 The  cost for each chocolate gift basket is b)$25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, the correct equations are:

6x + 5y =300

3x + 7y = 285

So, if we multiply the second equation by 2, and subtract the first equation to the second equation:

6x +14 y= 570

-

6x +5y =300

9y = 270

Solving for y:

y = 270/9

y = 30

Substituting y=30 on any equation:

6x + 5y =300

6x + 5(30) =300

Solving for x (cost for each chocolate gift basket)

6x+150 =300

6x =300-150

6x = 150

x =150/6

x = $25

well my understanding of this question is they want you to use the y=14.1x -2.3 and put the coordinates they gave you onto the line segment of   y=14.1x -2.3

step-by-step explanation:

all group life insurance is term insurance. actually it is annual renewable term and it is rated on the average age and claims experience of the entire group, which is called "experience rating." remember, this type of insurance has a 31-day grace period and is convertible to whole life upon leaving employment. a contributory group plan requires that both the employer and the employees pay part of the premium. at least 75% of those eligible must participate, so the group is sure to get most of the healthy employees as well as those that are sick.
