Answer:
The principal amont was $35,000
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a simple interest problem.
The simple interest formula is given by:

In which E are the earnings, P is the principal(the initial amount of money), I is the interest rate(yearly, as a decimal) and t is the time.
In this problem, we have that:

We want to find P. So





The principal amont was $35,000
Given the system of equations:

To solve it by substitution, follow the steps below.
Step 1: Solve one linear equation for x in terms of y.
Let's choose the second equation. To solve it for x, add 3y to each side of the equations.

Step 2: Substitute the expression found for x in the first equation.

Step 3: Isolate y in the equation found in step 2.
To do it, first, add 48 to both sides.

Then, divide both sides by 15.

Step 4: Substitute y by 5 in the relation found in step 1 to find x.

Answer:
x = -9
y = 5
or (-9, 5)
Also, you can graph the lines by choosing two points from each equation, according to the picture below.
