Select the best possible first step to solving the system by first eliminating the y variable. 4x – 5y = 4 3x + 2y = –20 a. none of the above b. multiply the first equation by 2 and multiply the second equation by 5. c. multiply the first equation by 2 and multiply the second equation by –5. d. multiply the first equation by –2 and multiply the second equation by 5.

Iwill mark brainliest for the answer that is correct and worth 30 points the distance, y, in centimeters, of an ant from a hole in the tree for a certain amount of time, x, in seconds, is shown in the graph: a graph titled motion of ant is shown. the graph shows time in seconds on the x-axis and the distance from hole in centimeters on the y-axis. the scale on the x-axis is shown from 0 to 6 at increments of 1, and the scale on the y-axis is shown from 0 to 12 at increments of 2. the graph has 3 straight lines. the first line is labeled p and joins ordered pairs 0, 0 and 2, 6. the second line is labeled q and joins ordered pairs 2, 6 and 3, 6. the third line is labeled r and joins ordered pairs 3, 6 and 5, 0. part a: is the graph linear or nonlinear? explain your answer. (2 points) part b: in which segments is the graph increasing, decreasing, and constant? (3 points) part c: in your own words, describe the motion of the ant, as shown on the graph. (5 points)
