Ascience test, which is worth 100 points, consists of 24 questions. each question is worth either 3 points or 5 points. if x is the number of 3-point questions and y is the number of 5-point questions, the system shown represents this situation. x + y = 24 3x + 5y = 100 what does the solution of this system indicate about the questions on the test? the test contains 4 three-point questions and 20 five-point questions. the test contains 10 three-point questions and 14 five-point questions. the test contains 14 three-point questions and 10 five-point questions. the test contains 20 three-point questions and 8 five-point questions.

Can someone explain the elimination method to me for this problem?

Which expression is equivalent to (4x^3*y^5)(3x^5*y)^2 \a) 24x^13*y^7b) 36x^13*y^7c) 36x^28*y^7d) 144x^16*y^12

Browning labs is testing a new growth inhibitor for a certain type of bacteria. the bacteria naturally grows exponentially each hour at a rate of 6.2%. the researchers know that the inhibitor will make the growth rate of the bacteria less than or equal to its natural growth rate. the sample currently contains 100 bacteria.the container holding the sample can hold only 300 bacteria, after which the sample will no longer grow. however, the researchers are increasing the size of the container at a constant rate allowing the container to hold 100 more bacteria each hour. they would like to determine the possible number of bacteria in the container over time.create a system of inequalities to model the situation above, and use it to determine how many of the solutions are viable.
