Answer:
x = 4
, y = 2
Step-by-step explanation by elimination:
Solve the following system:
{2 x + 3 y = 14 | (equation 1)
x + 5 y = 14 | (equation 2)
Subtract 1/2 × (equation 1) from equation 2:
{2 x + 3 y = 14 | (equation 1)
0 x+(7 y)/2 = 7 | (equation 2)
Multiply equation 2 by 2/7:
{2 x + 3 y = 14 | (equation 1)
0 x+y = 2 | (equation 2)
Subtract 3 × (equation 2) from equation 1:
{2 x+0 y = 8 | (equation 1)
0 x+y = 2 | (equation 2)
Divide equation 1 by 2:
{x+0 y = 4 | (equation 1)
0 x+y = 2 | (equation 2)
Collect results:
Answer: {x = 4
, y = 2
Answer:
their current cash flow is negative since their expenses are higher than their income:
- monthly net income = $56,000 / 12 = $4,667
- monthly expenses = $1,500 + $3,500 = $5,000
- monthly cash flow = ($333)
they have 3 options:
- Option 1 (which I personally dislike) is that Neil contributes $4,000 less per year to his retirement account in order to balance their net income and expenses. The problem is that once he retires, his income will be much lower.
- Option 2 is that they lower their expenses a little bit, only enough to balance their cash flows.
- Option 3 is that Nancy gets a part time job, maybe a couple of hours per day which will allow her to earn money that can be used to cover some expenses.
Personally I believe that option 2 is the best, but if they definitely cannot lower their monthly expenses, then option 3 would probably fit them.
No i am horrible in it and everytime i come to ask questions nobody helps :(
