wilmer spends at least 13 hours reading for his assignments each week, plus 1 hour completing each reading response assignment. the inequality that represents the total number of hours, y, wilmer spends on his various assignments each week is y ≥ x + 13, where x represents the number of reading response assignments he completes. this week, wilmer can spend only 5 hours total reading for his various assignments. which explanation correctly analyzes whether there is a solution for this scenario?

there is no solution. for the inequality to be true, the value of x has to be negative. this is impossible because wilmer can't have a negative number of reading response assignments.

a system of linear equations is shown below. 2x + 4y = 10 3x - y = 8 maria is attempting to prove that by replacing 2x + 4y = 10 with a different equation it will sometimes produce a new system of equations with the same solution. maria plans on multiplying 2x + 4y = 10 by 2 and then adding the results to the equation 3x − y = 8 in order to create a new equation. maria claims that the new equation that she will replace 2x + 4y = 10 with is 7x + 7y = 12. is maria correct?

maria is not correct because the new equation should be 7x + 7y = 28.
