Single interest uses an arithmetic formula where as compound interest uses a geometric formula
Remember you can do anything to an equation as long as you do it to both sides
and when multiply by negative, flip sign
8+h>2+3h
minus h both sides
8+h-h>2+3h-h
8+0>2+2h
8>2+2h
minus 2 both sides
8-2>2-2+2h
6>0+2h
6>2h
divide by 2 both sides
6/2>2h/2
3>1h
3>h

Answer: x = -9/ addition property of equality
Explanation: In this problem, we're given that x - 7 = -16 and we're asked to solve the equation and explain which equality we used.
The first statement we have will be
the given statement which is x - 7 = -16.
Now, we just solve the equation.
Our first and only step will be to add 7 to both sides.
Then, we find that x = -9.
The property we used here was the addition property of equality.
This property tells us that we can add the same quantity,
or equal quantities, to both sides of an equation.
Answer:
If im correct from the way this is set up, I believe it is C
Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem I would change:
2x + 3y = 25 into
-2x - 3y = -25
Then, I would add up both equations by lining them up top of another.
5x + 3y = 31
+ -2x - 3y = -25
3x = 6
x = 2
Now that you have x, solve for y.
5x + 3y = 31
5(2) + 3y = 31
10 + 3y = 31
3y = 21
y = 7
So, x is 2 and y is 7.
Check to see if the values are correct by plugging them into the other equation.
2x + 3y = 25
2(2) + 3(7) = 25
4 + 21 = 25
25 = 25
Since the values are correct, the solution to this problem is A (2, 7).
