a car dealership has 41 cars. The least expensive car cost 11,999. The most expensive car costs 19,499. Another car, priced at 33,499 is added to the dealerships inventory. Select the answer choice that describes how each statistic will change when the new car is added.

So the first thing we do is to multiply the top equation by 3. the reason i want to do this is i notice there will be a 6y on both equations and can possibly add/subtract them. so we get 6y = -3x + 27. adding that and the second equation we get 6x = 27-15 which is 12. divide by 6 and we get 2. ∴ x = 2. substituting 2 into the first equation we get 2y = -2 + 9 which is 7. divide by 2 and we get 7/2. ∴ y = 7/2, x = 2.
