What’s the point of this kind of question? Multiple choice in Algebra? What about just “Solve for X and Y”? And this is supposed to be Algebra 2?

This kind of stuff was first semester Algebra 1 when I was in middle school. And no one would have asked a multiple choice question about selecting the best first step - we just had to solve for the variables.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Exactly! What is this? A reading test or a math exam? Solve the problem and hand it in to be graded.
