The first set:
3x + 2y = 2 ---1)
5x + 4y = 6 ---2)
From 1), multiply all by 2, 6x + 4y = 4 ---3)
3) - 2),
6x + 4y - (5x + 4y) = 6 - 4
6x + 4y - 5x - 4y = 2
x = 2
Sub in x = 2 into 1),
3(2) + 2y = 2
2y = -4
y = -2
(2 , -2)
The second set:
3x + 2y = 2 ---1)
11x + 8y = 10 ---2)
From 1), multiply all by 4, 12x + 8y = 8 ---3)
3) - 2),
12x + 8y - (11x + 8y) = 8 - 10
12x + 8y - 11x - 8y = -2
x = -2
From this x value alone, we can tell that these two linear systems do NOT have the same solution as they meet at different coordinates.
Hope this helped! Ask me if there's any working from here that you don't understand! :)
Answer:
The axis of symmetry will be at 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The middle of -3 and 5 will be the axis :)
-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
-2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4
-1, 0, 1, 2, 3
0, 1, 2

Present value = 135000
Monthly interest, i = 0.06/12 = 0.005
Monthly payment, A= 869.81
Future value of loan after 16 years

[compound interest formula]


Future value of payments after 16 years



Balance = future value of loan - future value of payments
=351736.652-279288.456
= $ 72448.20
Note: the exact monthly payment for a 25-year mortgage is



Repeating the previous calculation with this "exact" monthly payment gives
Balance = 72448.197, very close to one of the choices.
So we conclude that the exact value obtained above differs from the answer choices is due to the precision (or lack of it) of the provided data.
The closest choice is therefore <span>$72,449.19</span>
