Since y must equal both 3x+2 and x-4, we deduce that 3x+2 and x-4 must equal each other. So, we have

Amount of car loan taken by Scott = $5500
Amount of loan paid back by Scott = $7370
Then
Amount of money paid as interest by Scott = (7370 - 5500) dollars
= 1870 dollars
Then
Percentage of interest given for the car loan = (1870/5500) * 100
= 1870/55
= 34 percent
So Scott had to pay a total interest rate of 34% in the four years.I hope the procedure is simple enough for you to understand and solve future problems.
Is this a question? Or what is the question if you first said it?
Hello,
Please, see the detailed answer in the attached files.
Thanks.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1). Equation of a line which has slope 'm' and y-intercept as 'b' is,
y = mx + b
If slope 'm' = 1 and y-intercept 'b' = -3
Equation of the line will be,
y = x - 3
x - y = 3
2). Equation of a line having slope 'm' and passing through a point (x', y') is,
y - y' = m(x - x')
If the slope 'm' = 1 and point is (-1, 2),
The the equation of the line will be,
y - 2 = 1(x + 1)
y = x + 1 + 2
y = x + 3
x - y = -3
3). Equation of a line passing through two points
and
will be,

If this line passes through (-2, 3) and (-3, 4),

y - 3 = -1(x + 2)
y = -x - 2 + 3
y = -x + 1
x + y = 1
