Answer:

y = 5/3

x = 8/3

Steps:

y = x - 1

2x + y = 7

Substitute y = x-1

(2x + x - 1 = 7)

Simplify: 3x - 1 = 7

Isolate x: 3x - 1 = 7:  x=8/3

Plug the valuse of x into the other equation (y = x- 1):    y = 8/3 - 1

8/3 - 1 = 5/3

y = 5/3

y = 5/3, x = 8/3

Mark save $258 more than Neil. In fact Mark saved $7 for every $4 Neil saved. How much money did Mark say?
olasank [31]

Let

x---------> amount of money saved by Mark

x---------> amount of money saved by Neil


we know that

x=y+258-------> equation 1

x/y=(7/4)-------> equation 2

substitute equation 1 in equation 2

(y+258) /y=7/4--------> 4*(y+258)=7*y------> 4y+1032=7y

7y-4y=1032--------> 3y=1032------> y=$344

x=344+258------>x=$602


the answer is

$602
