Jerry solved the system of equations. x minus 3 y = 1. 7 x + 2 y = 7. As the first step, he decided to solve for y in the second equation because it had the smallest number as a coefficient. Max told him that there was a more efficient way. What reason can Max give for his statement? The variable x in the first equation has a coefficient of one so there will be fewer steps to the solution. The variable x in the second equation has a coefficient of 7 so it will be easy to divide 7 by 7. The variable y in the second equation has a coefficient of 2 so it will be easy to divide the entire equation by 2. The variable x in the second equation has the largest coefficient. When dividing by 7, the solution will be a smaller number.

How are the solutions for |x +4|< -2 and |x +4| < 2 different? a they are not different, because the inequality is an absolute valueb the first inequality has no solution because absolute value cannot be negativec for one the solution is benveen two numbers. for the other, the solution is outside of the twonumbersd. for one the solution is a range of positive numbers, for the other, the solution is a range of negativenumbers
