To understand why the system of equations \( 7x + 7y = 42 \) and \( 6x + y = 36 \) is equivalent to the system \( x + y = 6 \) and \( 6x + y = 36 \), let's focus on the first equation.

### Simplifying the First Equation

1. Take the equation \( 7x + 7y = 42 \).
2. You can divide every term in the equation by 7:

\[
\frac{7x}{7} + \frac{7y}{7} = \frac{42}{7}
\]

This simplifies to:

\[
x + y = 6
\]

Thus, we see that \( 7x + 7y = 42 \) is equivalent to \( x + y = 6 \).

### Understanding the Second Equation

The second equation in both systems is \( 6x + y = 36 \), which remains unchanged in both systems.

### Conclusion on Equivalence

Therefore, the system of equations:

1. \( 7x + 7y = 42 \)
2. \( 6x + y = 36 \)

can be reduced to:

1. \( x + y = 6 \)
2. \( 6x + y = 36 \)

Both systems essentially describe the same relationship between \( x \) and \( y \).

### Correct Response

The correct response from your options should articulate that dividing the first equation by 7 yields \( x + y = 6 \), which maintains the equivalence of the two systems. A full statement could be:

"The equation \( 7x + 7y = 42 \) can be divided by 7 to produce the equivalent equation \( x + y = 6 \)."

So, the second response option stating this indicates an incorrect multiplication. Is there a specific response you'd like to select or elaborate on?

To solve the system of equations using the elimination method, we start with the given equations:

1. \( 0.1x + 0.3y = 0.9 \)
2. \( 0.1x - 0.3y = 0.2 \)

### Step 1: Align the equations

We can write them down clearly for elimination:

1. \( 0.1x + 0.3y = 0.9 \) (equation 1)
2. \( 0.1x - 0.3y = 0.2 \) (equation 2)

### Step 2: Eliminate \(x\)

To eliminate \(x\), we can subtract equation 2 from equation 1:

\[
(0.1x + 0.3y) - (0.1x - 0.3y) = 0.9 - 0.2
\]

### Step 3: Simplify the left side

This can be simplified to:

\[
0.1x + 0.3y - 0.1x + 0.3y = 0.7
\]

Which simplifies to:

\[
0.6y = 0.7
\]

### Step 4: Solve for \(y\)

Now, divide both sides by \(0.6\):

\[
y = \frac{0.7}{0.6} = \frac{7}{6}
\]

### Step 5: Substitute \(y\) back into one of the equations to find \(x\)

We can substitute \(y = \frac{7}{6}\) into equation 1:

\[
0.1x + 0.3\left(\frac{7}{6}\right) = 0.9
\]

Calculating \(0.3 \times \frac{7}{6}\):

\[
0.1x + \frac{21}{60} = 0.9 \quad \text{(since } 0.3 = \frac{3}{10} = \frac{18}{60})
\]

Subtract \(\frac{21}{60}\) from both sides:

\[
0.1x = 0.9 - \frac{21}{60} = \frac{54}{60} - \frac{21}{60} = \frac{33}{60}
\]

### Step 6: Solve for \(x\)

Now, divide both sides by \(0.1\):

\[
x = \frac{33/60}{0.1} = \frac{33/60}{1/10} = \frac{33}{60} \times 10 = \frac{33}{6} = \frac{11}{2}
\]

### Final Solution
Thus, we have:

\[
(x, y) = \left( \frac{11}{2}, \frac{7}{6} \right)
\]

The correct answer is:

**\(\left(\frac{11}{2}, \frac{7}{6}\right)\)**.

To determine which point is a solution for the simultaneous inequalities \( y > -2x + 3 \) and \( y < 3x - 3 \), we can evaluate each potential point by substituting the coordinates into both inequalities.

### Step 1: Evaluate the inequalities

**Inequality 1:** \( y > -2x + 3 \)

**Inequality 2:** \( y < 3x - 3 \)

### Given Points:

1. \( (2, 5) \)
2. \( (3, 6) \)
3. \( (10, 5) \)
4. \( (1, -5) \)

### Evaluate Each Point

**1. For point \( (2, 5) \):**

- Check \( y > -2x + 3 \):
\[
5 > -2(2) + 3 \Rightarrow 5 > -4 + 3 \Rightarrow 5 > -1 \quad \text{(True)}
\]

- Check \( y < 3x - 3 \):
\[
5 < 3(2) - 3 \Rightarrow 5 < 6 - 3 \Rightarrow 5 < 3 \quad \text{(False)}
\]

**2. For point \( (3, 6) \):**

- Check \( y > -2x + 3 \):
\[
6 > -2(3) + 3 \Rightarrow 6 > -6 + 3 \Rightarrow 6 > -3 \quad \text{(True)}
\]

- Check \( y < 3x - 3 \):
\[
6 < 3(3) - 3 \Rightarrow 6 < 9 - 3 \Rightarrow 6 < 6 \quad \text{(False)}
\]

**3. For point \( (10, 5) \):**

- Check \( y > -2x + 3 \):
\[
5 > -2(10) + 3 \Rightarrow 5 > -20 + 3 \Rightarrow 5 > -17 \quad \text{(True)}
\]

- Check \( y < 3x - 3 \):
\[
5 < 3(10) - 3 \Rightarrow 5 < 30 - 3 \Rightarrow 5 < 27 \quad \text{(True)}
\]

**4. For point \( (1, -5) \):**

- Check \( y > -2x + 3 \):
\[
-5 > -2(1) + 3 \Rightarrow -5 > -2 + 3 \Rightarrow -5 > 1 \quad \text{(False)}
\]

### Final Conclusion

The point that satisfies both inequalities \( y > -2x + 3 \) and \( y < 3x - 3 \) is:

**\( (10, 5) \)**.

So, the correct response is:

**\( (10, 5) \)**.

To determine which point is a solution for the simultaneous inequalities \( y \leq 13x + 2 \) and \( y < 23x + 4 \), we will evaluate each potential point by substituting the coordinates into both inequalities.

### Given Inequalities:

1. \( y \leq 13x + 2 \)
2. \( y < 23x + 4 \)

### Given Points:

1. \( (2, 5) \)
2. \( (-10, -2) \)
3. \( (-6, 0) \)
4. \( (-4, -2) \)

### Evaluate Each Point:

**1. For point \( (2, 5) \):**

- Check \( y \leq 13x + 2 \):
\[
5 \leq 13(2) + 2 \Rightarrow 5 \leq 26 + 2 \Rightarrow 5 \leq 28 \quad \text{(True)}
\]

- Check \( y < 23x + 4 \):
\[
5 < 23(2) + 4 \Rightarrow 5 < 46 + 4 \Rightarrow 5 < 50 \quad \text{(True)}
\]

**2. For point \( (-10, -2) \):**

- Check \( y \leq 13x + 2 \):
\[
-2 \leq 13(-10) + 2 \Rightarrow -2 \leq -130 + 2 \Rightarrow -2 \leq -128 \quad \text{(False)}
\]

**3. For point \( (-6, 0) \):**

- Check \( y \leq 13x + 2 \):
\[
0 \leq 13(-6) + 2 \Rightarrow 0 \leq -78 + 2 \Rightarrow 0 \leq -76 \quad \text{(False)}
\]

**4. For point \( (-4, -2) \):**

- Check \( y \leq 13x + 2 \):
\[
-2 \leq 13(-4) + 2 \Rightarrow -2 \leq -52 + 2 \Rightarrow -2 \leq -50 \quad \text{(False)}
\]

### Final Conclusion:

The only point that satisfies both inequalities \( y \leq 13x + 2 \) and \( y < 23x + 4 \) is:

**\( (2, 5) \)**.

So, the correct response is:

**\( (2, 5) \)**.
