Emily is a songwriter who collects royalties on her songs whenever they are played in a commercial or a movie. Emily will earn $40 every time one of her songs is played in a commercial and she will earn $120 every time one of her songs is played in a movie. Emily earned a total of $600 in royalties on 11 commercials and movies. Graphically solve a system of equations in order to determine the number of commercials, x, and the number of movies, y, on which Emily's songs were played. y Click twice to plot each line.

Biology Each day, an average adult moose can process about 32 kilograms of terrestrial vegetation (twigs and leaves) and aquatic vegetation. From this food, it needs to obtain about 1.9 grams of sodium and 11,000 calories of energy. Aquatic vegetation has about 0.15 gram of sodium per kilogram and about 193 calories of energy per kilogram, whereas terrestrial vegetation has minimal sodium and about four times as much energy as aquatic vegetation. Write and graph a system of inequalities that describes the amounts t and a of terrestrial and aquatic vegetation, respectively, for the daily diet of an average adult moose.
Without graphing, determine the number of solutions and then classify the system of equations. (a) {y=2x44x+2y=9 (b) {3x+2y=22x+y=1
