Answer:

D; it was bought for $5,487.36

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the investment amount be $x

We use the formula for simple interest to get the interest

(2112.64-x) = (x * 5.5 * 7)/100

211264-100x = 38.5x

138.5x = 211264

x = 211264/138.5

x = 5,847.36

Solve the systems of equations 9x+5y=41 and x+y=9 by combining the equations
Sholpan [36]

Step-by-step explanation:

multiplying the 2nd eqn by 9 we get,

then,subtracting 1st and 2nd eqn

9x+5y=41

9x+9y=81

- - -

__________

0. -4y=-40

we get y = 10

then we get x=9-y

x=9-10

x= -1

so x is -1 and y is 10

Kruka [31]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept is -1, so the answer is either A or C

Since the line is going down when you read left to right, then it must have a negative slope.  A has a slope of -1/3 and C has a slope of +3.  Therefore, A is the answer
