You would need to make them eliminate so I would multiply the entire first one by 2.5 to make the X's cancel out. So you would end up with -5X+7.5Y=17.5. The X's would cancel and you would be left with 15.5Y=15.5. So Y=1. Then replace Y into one of the equations. I'm going to use the top again. -2X+3(1)=7. Subtract 3 from both sides to get -2x=4. Divide both sides by negative 2 to get X=-2. So the solution would be (-2,1)
So we are using the denominator 20.
1/2 of 20 would be 10.
So, out of 20 we multiply it by 10 since it is our numerator.
Now, we have converted it to 100/200.
Freshman : 100 students
Sophomores : 10 students
Juniors : 20 students
Seniors : 70 students

<em>2400 is increased by 30%.</em>
so,
2400 + (30/100 * 2400)
2400 + (30 * 24)
2400 + 720
3120
<em>this number is decreased by 20%.</em>
so,
3120 - (20/100 * 3120)
3120 - (2 * 312)
3120 - 624
2496
therefore, the final number will be 2496.
