Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 3y = 24.....multiply by -1
5x + 3y = 36
------------------
-x - 3y = -24 (result of multiplying by -1)
5x + 3y = 36
------------------add
4x = 12
x = 12/4
x = 3 <=======
x + 3y = 24
3 + 3y = 24
3y = 24 - 3
3y = 21
y = 21/3
y = 7 <========
Answer:
$282.50
Step-by-step explanation:
He will be charged $7.50 for 3 months, which is a total of 7.5 * 3 = $22.50.
Subtract this from the amount in his account to find the amount of money he has at the end of the three months:
305 - 22.5 = 282.5
The answer is therefore $282.50.
