We have the variable y so lets substitute
y=-3x-2
2x+5y=16

2x+5y=16
2x+5(-3x-2)=16
2x-15x-10=16
-13x=26
x=-2

y=-3x-2
  =-3(-2)-2
  =4

2x+5y=16
2(-2)+5(4)=16
-4+20=16
16=16

You have to get a variable by itself like in here... Y is itself so in the other equation or we can say second one you just have to sub it in... Like

2x+5(-3x-2)=16
2x-15x-10=16
Now you just have to subtract 2 from 15, because of the same variable that is (x)
So -13x-10=16
Take 10 to the other side means add from the both sides, that will get you at
-13x=26
So now x= -2
Remember you added because it was -10 if it would be a positive 10 then you have to subtract it from both of the sides but since here it was negative so you just added them up
Hope i helped

After 6 years, an account that earns 4% simple interest has earned %480 in interest. How much was the initial deposit?
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

$2000

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for simple interest is:

i=Prt

Where

i is the interest earned

P is the initial deposit

r is the rate of interest (in decimal)

t is the time

Now, in the problem, it is given:

i = 480

r = 4% = 4/100 = 0.04

t = 6

Now, we substitute and find the value of P (initial deposit):

i=Prt\\480=P(0.04)(6)\\480=P(0.24)\\P=\frac{480}{0.24}\\P=2000

Hence, the initial deposit was $2000
