Answer:

To solve the system of equations by substitution:

2x+y=-2

3x-y=7

first solve for y:

2x+y=-2

y=-2x-2

Then plug ^^ equation for y in the other equation

3x-(-2x-2)=7

5x+2=7

5x=5

x=1

Then solve for y:

2(1)+y=-2

y=-4

Final answer is x = 1 and y = -4

Hope it helps!

A person invested $6,000, some at 7% and the rest at 5%. The income from the 7% investment is equal to the income from the 5% in

8090 [49]

Answer:

The person invested $3500 at 7% and $2500 at 5%

Step-by-step explanation:

We can say that $0,07x+0,05x=6000$ because the investment is equal both in one as in another, where x is the income from the investment.

Solving the equation we have:

$0,12x=6000\\x=50000$

Then to get the incomes:

At 7%: $I=0.07*50000\\I=$3500$

And at 5%: $I=0.05*50000\\I=$2500$

Finally we can demonstrate the answer because the income at 7% + income at 5% are 3500+2500=$6000
