Answer:
(0.5, 1.3)(0.5, 1.3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given equations are:
As we can see that the given equations are linear equations which are graphed as straight lines on graph. The solution of two equations is the point of their intersection on the graph.
We can plot the graph of both equations using any online or desktop graphing tool.
We have used "Desmos" online graphing calculator to plot the graph of two lines (Picture Attached)
We can see from the graph that the lines intersect at: (0.517, 1.267)
Rounding off both coordinates of point of intersection to nearest tenth we get
(0.5, 1.3)
Hence,
(0.5, 1.3) is the correct answer

What you would do is you would keep subtracting (I recommend a calculator for this task) from both accounts until you get an equal amount for each. You would also have to record this down that way you know each time what you got. (And please do not put the calculator part). Really hope this helps!!!
