If the interest is the same for both accounts then:
.03x=.05(16000-x)
.03x=800-.05x
.08x=800
x=10000, since the interest is the same for both we can just double the interest from one investment to find the total interest earned each year...
.03(10000)2=$600.00
The answer is B (70 and 20 degrees)
OK first convert one of the equations into Y=MX+b form
Y-2x = 3
Add 2X
Y = 2x +3
Now substitute this equation in the other one.
So it would be
3X - 2Y = 5
3X-2(2x+3) = 5
Now solve for y
3X - 4X - 6 = 5
-1X - 6 = 5
Add 6
-1X = 11
X = -11
Now substitute this into one of the equations
Y - 2X = 3
Y -2(-11) = 3
Y +22 = 3
y = 3-22
y = -19
The answer would be a hope it helps
Let w = washer and d = dryer:
w + d = $770,
but w = d + 70, replace w with d+70
(d+70) + d = 770
2d + 70 =770
2d = 770 -70 = 700
and d=$350, then w=350+70 = 420
