Li and Jen went shopping. • Li bought 5 pairs of earrings and 1 necklace for a total of $63. • Jen bought 1 pair of earrings and 2 necklaces for a total of $36. Each pair of earrings cost e dollars and each necklace cost n dollars. Which system of equations can be used to find the cost, in dollars, of each pair of earrings and each necklace?

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, let us express the cost

for Li

5e+n=631

for Jen

e+2n=362

the system of equations are

5e+n=631

e+2n=362

Multiply 1 by 1 and 2 by 5 to eliminate e we have

 5e+n=63

 5e+10n=180

-0-9n=-117

9n=117

Divide both sides by 9 we have

n=117/9

n=13

put n=13 in eqn 1 we have

e+2(13)=36

e+26=36

e=36-26

e=10

Earing is $13

Necklace is $10

  b.   the average rate of change of f(x) is less than the average rate of change of g(x).

step-by-step explanation:

since the length of the interval is the same in each case, we only need to compare the change in y-value to see which is greater.

so the change in y-value for function f is (6 )) = 9.

the table tells us

so the change in y-value for function g is (31 -1) = 30.

the change in y-value of f(x) on the interval is less than the change in y-value of g(x) on the same interval, so the average rate of change of f(x) is less than the average rate of change of g(x).
