Answer:
8 and 6
Step-by-step explanation:
If you use x for the first number, and y for the second, you get equations of 3x+5y=54 and x-2=y.
You can substitute the second equation into the first one to solve it. This gives 3x+5(x-2)=54.
The brackets can be expanded to 3x+5x-10=54. Collecting like terms makes it 8x-10=54.
Next, we add 10 to both sides. This gives 8x=64.
From there, we isolate the x by dividing both sides by 8, giving x=8.
To work out the second number, we can sub 8 for x in either equation (I'm using the second one as it's simpler).
This comes to y=8-2, therefore y=6.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To get the new price of the car multiply the original price by the percent increase in decimal form +1. 11% in decimal form is 0.11 = 11/100. Add one to this and you get 1.11 = 1 + 0.11. So now multiply $49,800 * 1.11 = $55,278. If the problem had said they decreased the price by 11% you would use 1 - 0.11 = 0.89 because 89% is 11% less than 100%.
