Using substitution to solve the system below, what expression should be substituted into the first equation? 2x-4y=-4 and x+2y=8
inna [77]

Answer:

Given the system of equation:

2x-4y=-4                    ......[1]

x+2y=8                      ......[2]

we can rewrite equation [2] as;

x = 8-2y                ......[3]

Substitute equation [3] into [1] to eliminate x, and solve for y;

2(8-2y)-4y = -4

Using distributive property: a\cdot (b+c) = a\cdot b+ a\cdot c

16-4y -4y = -4

Combine like terms;

16 - 8y = -4

Add 4 to both sides we have;

20 - 8y = 0

Add 8y to both sides we have;

20 = 8y

Divide 8 to both sides we have;

y = 2.5

Substitute the y-value in [3] we have;

x = 8-2(2.5)

x = 8 - 5 = 3

Therefore, the  expression should be substituted into the first equation is, x = 8-2y  and also the value of x = 3 and y = 2.5

Given the following :

Price of home = $220,000

Down payment = 20%

3 points at closing

30 years fixed rate mortgage at 7%

A.)The down payment :

20% of price

0.2 × $220,000 = $44,000

B.) Amount of the Mortgage :

Price - down payment

$220,000 - $44,000 = $176,000

C.) Amount to be paid for the 3 point of closing :

3% of mortgage amount

0.03 * $176,000 = $5,280

D.) monthly payment :

(mortgage amount(1 + rate)) / 30* 12

176000(1 + 0.07)

($176,000 + $12320) / 360

$523

E.) Total cost of interest :

0.07 * 176000 = $12,320
