Answer:
(x,y) = (8,7)
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve equation [2] for the variable x
[2] x = y + 15
Plug this in for variable x in equation [1]
[1] (y +15) + y = 1
[1] 2y = -14
Solve equation [1] for the variable y
[1] 2y = - 14
[1] y = - 7 By now we know this much :
x = y+15
y = -7
// Use the y value to solve for x
x = (-7)+15 = 8
Solution :
{x,y} = {8,-7}
(2x - 1)(x + 2y - 3) =
2x(x + 2y - 3) + (-1)(x + 2y - 3) =
2x^2 + 4xy - 6x - x - 2y + 3 =
2x^2 + 4xy - 7x - 2y + 3
Using the formula of P(1 + r)^n = x where p represents the initial value, r represents the rate and n represents the number of years and x is our final output. We want to find P so we have to make it the subject of the equation.
1 + 0.04 = 1.04
1.04^18 = 2.025816515
Then divide the total amount by this to get 185,110.5454
Therefore the answer is $185,110.55
Hope this helps! :)
