Answer:

The teacher can purchase 61 pencils with $5

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a simple proportion problem. It can be solved by pure logic reasoning without any formulas

It a dozen pencils cost $0.97, each pencil cost $0.97/12=0.08083

With $5 she will be able to purchase 5/0.08083=61.85 pencils

We must round to the nearest lower integer

The teacher can purchase 61 pencils with $5

Determine which equations below, when combined with the equation 3x-4y=2, will form a system with no solutions. Choose all that
svetoff [14.1K]
Two equations will not have solution if they are parallel and have different y-intercepts. Parallel lines have the same slope. In a slope-intercept form, the equation of the line can be expressed as,       
 
        y = mx + b 

where m is slope and b is the y-intercept.

Given: 3x - 4y = 2
Slope-intercept: y = 3x/4 - 1/2

A. 2y = 1.5x - 2
Slope-intercept: y = 3x/4 - 1

B. 2y = 1.5x - 1
Slope-intercept:  y = 3x/4 - 1/2

C. 3x + 4y = 2
Slope-intercept:  y = -3x/4 + 1/2

D. -4y + 3x = -2
Slope-intercept: y = 3x/4 + 1/2

Hence, the answers to this item are A and D.
