So
x (4%)
y (5%)
x=y+2400
0.04x+0.05y=294

Once you solve them, x=4600 and y=2200
so 4%= $4600
5%= $2200

Answer:

$x=34$

Step-by-step explanation:

*it's kind of hard to read the number in parenthesis though but i think it's 5

both angles have to add up to 180º because they are co-exterior angles on parallel lines.

$2(x+5)+102=180\\2(x+5)=78\\2x+10=78\\2x=68\\x=34$

Chose the substitution method to solve the system of equations choose the correct ordered pair 3x-y=7 2x-2y2

xenn [34]

Answer:

(3, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-y=7

2x-2y=2

------------

y=3x-7

substitute this equation to 2x-2y=2

first, simplify 2x-2y=2 into x-y=1.

-----------------------------------------------------

x-(3x-7)=1

x-3x+7=1

-2x+7=1

-2x=1-7

-2x=-6

x=-6/-2=3

y=3(3)-7=9-7=2

Answer: x=3, y=2.
