This is simple logic. If 5 more prefer pizza than steak, you know 15 like pizza, and 10 like steak. 5p+?S=25. With p equaling how many liked pizza, and S equaling how many liked steak.
Answer:
D. X=-3, y=4
Step-by-step explanation:
-2x+3y=18 equation 1
x=-y+1 equation 2
-2(-y+1)+3y=18 replace x value of equation 2 into equation 1
2y-2+3y=18
5y=20
y=4
solve for x by replacing y value into either equation.
x=-y+1
x=-4+1
x=-3
You are told to ignore the amount of principal paid, so you are apparently to assume the loan amount was for $50 thousand.
a) The old monthly payment was $10.67×50 = $533.50
b) The new monthly payment is $11.72×50 = $586.00
c) The increase in monthly payment is figured in the usual way:
... (new/old -1)×100% = (1.0984-1)×100% = 9.84%
_____
In reality, about 3% of the loan will have been paid at the end of 2 years. Thus, the original loan amount may have been near $51,500. This problem is telling you to ignore the difference.
