Amount of money saved by Jordon for the video game = (4/5) * 80
= 4 * 16 dollars
= 64 dollars
So
The amount of money that
Jordan needs to earn more for buying the video game = (80 - 64) dollars
= 16 dollars
Amount earned by Jordan per hour working at a pizza shop = $7.75
Let us assume the number of hours Jordan needs to work to save the rest of the money for the video game = x
Then
7.75x = 16
x = 16/7.75
= 2.06 hours
So it can be said that Jordan has to work 3 hours to save the rest of the money for the video game. If Jordan works 2 hours then he will be short of the required amount. If Jordan works for 3 hours he will have some excess amount in his hand after saving for the video game.
I assume this is the intersection of two lines, i.e. -1/2y is (-1/2)y. Please tell me if it's really -1/(2y).
(-1/2)y=(1/2)x+5
Multiplying both sides by -2
y = - x - 10
The other equation is
y = 2x + 2
We can equate them to find the meet
y = - x - 10 = 2x + 2
-3x = 12
x = -4
y = 2x + 2 = -6
Check: (-1/2)y=3, (1/2)x+5=3, equal, good
2x+2=2(-4)+2=-6=y, good
Answer: x=-4, y=-6
Answer:
x(12y+4)
