Let the pension before increase be x.

When it was increased by 2%, that means became (100% + 2%) = 102% = 102/100 = 1.02

When the factor of 1.02 was applied it became £78.03

x*1.02 = 78.03

x = 78.03/1.02

x = 76.5

So the pension before the increase was £76.50 

Hope this helped.

Solve this following system by graphing <br> X-y=4<br> X+y=2
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

The answer is x = 3 and y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

If you were to graph the two lines, their equations would be y = x - 4 and y = -x + 2. The two lines intersect at the point (3, -1), so the solution to the system is x = 3 and y = -1.
