Use Subtraction
1. Subtract
x+2y=7
3x-2y=-3
-------------
4x+0y=4 SIMPLIFY 4x=4
2. DIVIDE
4x=4
x=1
Substitute that into either of the original equations to get x=1, y=3
Answer:
Did you find the answer???
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Switch sides:
3x = 4y+4
Divide both sides by 3:

Answer:
a) see the attached spreadsheet (table)
b) Calculate, for a 10-year horizon; Computate for a longer horizon.
c) Year 13; no
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The attached table shows net income projections for the two companies. Calculate's increases by 0.5 million each year; Computate's increases by 15% each year. The result is rounded to the nearest dollar.
__
b) After year 4, Computate's net income is increasing by more than 0.5 million per year, so its growth is faster and getting faster yet. However, in the first 10 years, Calculate's net income remains higher than that of Computate. If we presume that some percentage of net income is returned to investors, then Calculate may provide a better return on investment.
The scenario given here is only interested in the first 10 years. However, beyond that time frame (see part C), we find that Computate's income growth far exceeds that of Calculate.
__
c) Extending the table through year 13, we see that Computate's net income exceeds Calculate's in that year. It continues to remain higher as long as the model remains valid.
Answer:
c(2) = -10
Step-by-step explanation:
The first equation says that the first term of the sequence is -20.
The second equation is saying that to find any term of the sequence, add 10 to the previous term.
c(2) = c(2-1) + 10
c(2) = c(1) + 10
c(2) = -20 + 10 = -10
