Answer:

The answer to your question is: x = 1, y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

I'll change decimals to fractions

4.5 = 9/2

12.5 = 25/2

3.25 = 13/4

0.75 = 3/4

                             -9/2 x - 2 y = - 25/2         (I)

                             13/4 x  -   y  = - 3/4            (ll)

Process

               from (II)     y = 13/4x  + 3/4

Sunstitution             -9/2x -2(13/4 x + 3/4) = - 25/2

                               -9/2 x - 13/2 x - 3/2 = -25/2

Multiply by 2         -9 x - 13 x - 3 = -25

                             -22 x = -25  + 3

                            -22 x = -22

                             x = 22/22

                            x = 1

                             y = 13/4 (1) + 3/4

                             y = 16/4

                             y = 4

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

$1968

Step-by-step explanation:

It will depreciate by 10% 4 times, which means that the result in the end will be <em>$3000 * (100% - 10%) * (100% - 10%) * (100% - 10%) * (100% - 10%)</em>, or, put simply, <em>x = $3000 * (0.9)⁴</em>.

Power: x = $3000 * 0.6561

Multiply: x = 1968.3 ≈ $1968
