Answer:
x=2,y=2
Step-by-step explanation:
This question is a simultaneous equation
So let's solve
3x+y=8...(1)
2x+2y=8....(2)
Multiply (1) by 2
6x+2y=16...(3)
Substrate (2) From (3)
4x=8
Let's make x the subject of formula by dividing both sides by 4
x=2
So let's substitute the value of x into (1)
3x+y=8
3(2)+y=8
6+y=8
y=8-6
y=2
Therefore x is 2,y is 2

Response:
Personally, I would save up and pay for the computer. If I need the computer right away or for a good reason, yes I will use a credit card to buy the computer.
On the other hand, if I don't need it at the moment, I will save up to buy it later and would probably save anyway because it's easier than stacking up on my credit card depending on how much I use my credit card.
(This was a quickly made response, adjust it anyway you would like and if it doesn't fit the question than it is perfectly OK to not use it!)
Perpendicular lines have slopes that are opposite and reciprocal. Therefore, the line we are looking for has a -3 slope.
y= -3x+b
Now, we can substitute in the point given to find the intercept.
2= -3(4)+b
2= -12+b
b=14
Finally, put in everything we've found to finish the equation.
y= -3x+14
