Answer:
8 and -2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the numbers be l and s.
We have equations:
l = 5s + 18
3l + 4s = 16
Solve for s by substituting l into the second equation:
3(5s + 18) + 4s = 16
15s + 54 + 4s = 16
19s = 16 - 54
19s = -38
s = -38/19
s = -2
Find the value of l:
l = 5(-2) + 18
l = -10 + 18
l = 8
First option:
y=money saved
x=number of months
y=30x+500
Second option:
y=50x+200
We have this system of equations:
y=30x+500
y=50x+200
We can solve this system of equations by equalization method
30x+500=50x+200
30x-50x=200-500
-20x=-300
x=-300/-20
x=15
so;
y=30x+500
y=30(15)+500
y=450+500
y=950
Answer; after 15 months, she would save the same amount using either option, the amount saved in either option will be $950.
