Berta worked to solve a system of equations. 4x + y = –5 x – y = –5 Step 1: ??? Step 2: x = –2 Step 3: 4(–2) + y = –5 Step 4: –8 + y = –5 Step 5: y = 3 Berta determined that the solution is (–2, 3). Which could have been the equation Berta found in step 1? 4x = 0 5x = 10 5x = –10 5x = –25

Graph red beads cost $1 an ounce and gold beads cost $3 an ounce. juanita wants to purchase a 12-ounce mixture of red and gold beads that she can sell for $2 an ounce. the solution of the system shows the number of beads needed for juanita to break even. x + y = 12, x + 3y = 24 how many ounces of red beads will juanita buy to break even? how many ounces of gold beads will she buy?

Having a hard time understanding this question (see attachment).
