When solving this system by elimination, which variable is the most convenient to eliminate, x or y?
2x + y = 7
3/2 x - y = 7/2

Y is the appropriate variable and the most easiest and convenient to eliminate

name 2x + y = 7 as equation i

and 3/2 x - y = 7/2 as equation ii

then add equation i and ii together

(3/2 + 2) x + y - y = (7 + 7/2)

(7/2) x = (21/2)

x = 3

then put in x = 3 in equation i

4 + y = 7

x = 7 - 4

x = 3

Therefore x = 3 and y = 3

the inequality is:

250c+180g≥950

step-by-step explanation:

let c denotes the number of days in a week   miyoko worked as a cryptographer.

and g denotes the number of days in a week she works as a geologist.

now we are given that she earns $250 for every day she works as a cryptographer,and earns $180 for every day she works as a geologist.

now miyoko's goal is to earn more than $950 this week.

hence, the inequality could be represented as:

250c+180g≥950
