Using the substitution method, substituting x = 37-y into

equation 2:

Simplify and solve the equation for y:

Substituting y=22 into

equation 1:

Simplify and solve the equation for x:

Therefore Marie bought 15 large sweatshirts and 22 small sweatshirts with his $289

answer; ///i believe the correct   answer is (e) transformational;

being born in poverty would limit the people's chances, opportunities and benefits.

this happen because of several things, such as:

- poor people tend to gain less access to good education and nutrition. this mean that their chance to obtain high paying jobs would also be limited.

- poor people tend to socialize with other poor people while the rich tend to socialize with other rich people. this means that simply throguh their social circle, rich people would have more business opportunities compared to the poor people.

- rich people tend to have more capital in their disposal. this would benefit them in business since it is far easier for them to fund their business operation compared to poor people.
