x
=
−
2
,
y
=
−
4
Explanation:
Right now, you have:
4
x
−
y
=
−
4

5
x
+
2
y
=
−
18
To make this easier, you must get rid of one variable, in this case I will remove
y
, to do this you must make the y-values in both equations the same.
To do this, I will multiply the whole of
4
x
−
y
=
−
4
by 2 to give
8
x
−
2
y
=
−
8
We now have:
8
x
−
2
y
=
−
8

5
z
+
2
y
=
−
18
All we need to do now is
(
8
x
−
2
y
+
5
x
+
2
y
)
=
(
−
18
−
8
)
≡
13
x
=
−
26
.
Divide both sides by 13 to find
x
:
13
x
=
−
26

13
x
13
=
−
26
13

x
=
−
2
Now put your value for
x
into either equation:
4
(
−
2
)
−
y
=
−
4

−
8
−
y
=
−
4

y
=
−
8
+
4

y
=
−
4
x
=
−
2
;
y
=
−
4

sp2606 [1]
Hey there! :D

Let's assume that 100,000 is 100%. Now, we have to find what 6% of 100,000 is. 
We can do this step by step.
First, figure out what 1% of 100,000 is. To find 1% of a number, move the decimal place 2 places to the left. 
So, when we move the decimal 2 places to the left, we have 1000.00. Basically, we have 1000.
So, 1000 is 1% of 100,000. Now, to find 6%, multiply 1000 by 6. So, 1000 multiplied by 6 is 6000. The final answer is 6000. The realtor earns 6000 dollars.
Thank you! Hope it helped!
