What does that 3/x and 2/x mean? 2x and 3x or x^2 and x^3?
Answer:
Total periodic pension costs (TPPC) is equal to the contributions plus change in the pension liability during the year. Each period, the periodic pension cost is recognized in profit or loss (P&L) and/or in other comprehensive income (OCI).
We can use the substitution method to solve this problem.
The second equation is

, so we can plug in 2x for 'y' in the first equation:


Multiply:

Combine like terms:

This is the x-value of our solution, we can plug this into any of the two equations to find the y-value:


Multiply:

This is the y-value of our solution. So our entire solution is (3, 6).
Circumference = ππD
