Answer:
One solution: (2.5,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use substitution for the solution. Substitute y=2x-5 to -8x-4y=-20 so that you end up with -8x-8x+20=-20. Next you want to add like terms which will be -16x+20=-20, next you want isolate x by subtracting 20 from both sides and leaves you with -16x=-40. Divide -16 on both sides to fully isolate x and will leave you with x=2.5. Now substiture in 2.5 for x in y=2x-5 to get y=2(2.5)-5 which will then lead to y=0.
y= 1/10x - 6
Which if you plug in 70 for x, y equals 1.
Rebecca has $1 and Tim has $70, together they have $71.
Answer is $31.25
Step by step
We know mark up is 112%
We know sell price (retail) after markup
We are looking for wholesale (original price)
So 112% of x = $35
1.12x = $35
Divide both sides by 1.12 to isolate x
X= 31.25
Looking at the given question, we can find several important information's and based on thm we can easily calculate the amount after 10 years.
Principal amount = $550
Rate of interest per year = 3%
Number of years the amount is to be kept = 10 years
Now we get put these information's in the formula of finding amount of money kepy in simple interest.
Amount = P(1 + rt)
Where
p = principal amount
r = rate of interest
t = Time
Then
Amount = 550[1 + (3/100) * 10)]
= 550 [1 + 3/10]
= 550 * (13/10)
= 55 * 13
= 715 dollars
So the total amount in my account will be $715
