Answer:
11.7647059 % gain
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the gain, take the new amount and subtract the original amount
9500-8500 = 1000
Divide by the original amount
1000/8500=.117647059
Multiply by 100% to get in percent form
-2
y = -4
-2x + 5y = 8
Let x=-14
-2(-14) +5y = 8
28 +5y = 8
Subtract 28 from each side
28-28 +5y = 8-28
5y = -20
Divide by 5
5y/5 = -20/5
