Answer:

14, 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are two different variables, setting up a system of equations and using the elimination method will eliminate one variable and allow you to solve.  

First equation:  'the sum of two numbers is 36'

x + y = 36

Second equation:  'twice the first number minus the second is 6'

2x - y = 6

Elimination (add equations):

 x + y = 36

+<u> 2x - y = 6</u>

  3x = 42

    x = 14

Solve for 'y':  

14 + y = 36

y = 22

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

No, 6 hours would cost $335, 35 over her limit of $300.

Step-by-step explanation:

she has to pay $200 plus 22.50 for every hour she rents. So, if she rents for 6 hours, she has to pay $200 + 6(22.50) or $200 + 135=335. She only has $300 so she can’t afford the event.

Elena receives ​$131 per year in simple interest from three investments totaling ​$3000. Part is invested at​ 3%, part at​ 4% an
ioda

Answer:

Elena invested $ 1,700 at 5%, $ 700 at 4%, and $ 600 at 3%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Elena receives $ 131 per year in simple interest from three investments totaling $ 3000, and part is invested at 3%, part at 4% and part at 5%, and there is $ 1000 more invested at 5% than at 4%, to find the amount invested at each rate, the following calculations must be performed:

1500 x 0.05 + 500 x 0.04 + 1000 x 0.03 = 75 + 20 + 30 = 125

1600 x 0.05 + 600 x 0.04 + 800 x 0.03 = 80 + 24 + 24 = 128

1700 x 0.05 + 700 x 0.04 + 600 x 0.03 = 85 + 28 + 18 = 131

Therefore, Elena invested $ 1,700 at 5%, $ 700 at 4%, and $ 600 at 3%
