Answer:
7z + 5 + 6z - 9 (Add 7z and 6z, subtract 9 from 5)
<em>13z - 4 </em>(Can't be simplified further)
Let's move like a crab, backwards some.
after 2 years?

after 3 years?

is that enough to pay the $1100?
now, let's write 1000(1+r)² in standard form
1000( 1² + 2r + r²)
1000(1 + 2r + r²)
1000 + 2000r + 1000r²
1000r² + 2000r + 1000 <---- standard form.
You would solve this with simultaneous equations, so if we write it as:
5n + 2p = 9
3n + 2p = 6
(subtract)
2n = 3
÷ 2
notebooks = 1.5
Now you would substitute it in:
(3 × 1.5) + 2p = 6
4.5 + 2p = 6
- 4.5
2p = 1.5
÷ 2
pens = 0.75
So your final answer is notebooks are $1.50 and pens are $0.75, I hope this helps!
Answer:
$15 per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
30 hours per week x 52 weeks in a year = 1560 hours per year
23,400 / 1560 = $15 per hour
