I might be wrong but im sure it is equal
Answer:
15x - 4y =-50 -----(i)
3x - 2y=-16 --------(ii)
Using Substitution
From (i)
15x=4y-50
x=4y-50/15
Substitute x=4y-50/[15] into eqn (ii)
3x - 2y= -16
3[4y-50]/15 - 2y =-16
Multiply through by 15 to clear the fraction
3(4y - 50) - 30y=-240
12y - 150 -30y=-240
12y-30y=-240+150
-18y = -90
y=90/18
y=5.
Substitute into any eqn of choice to get x
3x - 2y=-16
3x - 2(5)=-16
3x - 10=-16
3x=-16+10
3x=-6
x=-6/3
x=-2.
x= -2
y=5
50,000 / 2500 = 20....he bought them for 20 bucks a piece. So if he wants to sell them at 15% profit, he would sell them for 20 + 0.15(20) = $ 23 bucks.
A 15% profit of 50,000 dollars is 0.15(50,000) = 7500. Plus the 50 grand spent totals 57500. So they want to make a $ 7500 profit. Selling 2500 lamps at $ 23 per lamp (2500 x 23 = 57500) makes them their profit.
I should just shut up now...answer is $ 23 per lamp

Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the formula with n=3.
h(3) = h(3-2) +h(3-1)
h(3) = h(1) +h(2)
h(3) = -6 +20 . . . . . substitute the given values
h(3) = 14
