1. Add the 2 systems and get 10y = 10.
2. Divide both sides by 10 so you get y = 1.
3. Substitute that in either equation (I'm going to use the 2nd equation).
4. -8x + 1 = 65.
5. Subtract 1 from each side.
6. -8x = 64.
7. Divide by -8 on both sides.
8. x = -8.
9. Check in the other equation.
10. 8(-8) + 9(1) ?= -55
11. -64 + 9 ?= -55
12. -55 = -55

beks73 [17]

Answer:

1.5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

She will give up making $28,000 per year for 2 years.  This means that she will give up making $56,000 in total.

$28,000 × 2 = $56,000

She also pay $34,000 in total to costs to get her degree.  She invested a total of $90,000.

$56,000 + $34,000 = $90,000

After graduating, she makes $60,000 a year.  It will take her 1.5 years to recover her investment.

90,000/60,000 = 1.5
