Answer:

x = 13 and y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 18

x - y = 8

Step 1: Find y

x = 18 - y

(18 - y) - y = 8

18 - y - y - 18 = 8 - 18

-2y / -2 = -10 / -2

y = 5

Step 2: Plug into x + y = 18 to get x

x + 5 - 5 = 18 - 5

x = 13

Answer: x = 13 and y = 5

Please I need help and thx please show how you did it

Answer:

1.) 9.2

2.)

625

633

the dealer

8.81

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm gonna assume that cm= compounded monthly

1.)

effective rate: .153/12= .01275

x= payments

$2590.67=300*\frac{1-(1+.01275)^{-x}}{.01275}\\.110103476=1-1.01275^{-x}\\.889896525=1.01275^{-x}\\\log_{1.01275}.889896525=-x\\x=9.207$

2.)

If there is no interest rate attached to financing through the deal the payment is just

37500/60 = 625

The monthly payment from the bank has a present value of 37500-3000=34500

and the effective rate is .039/12= .00325

$34500=x\frac{1-(1.00325)^{-60}}{.00325}\\34500=54.43234738x\\x=633.81$

Finally, the amount we save is just the difference

633.81-625=8.81
