It's easier to work with problems such as –2.1x + 3.7 -5 + 4.9x when we rearrange the like terms vertically:
–2.1x + 3.7 -5 + 4.9x
becomes
–2.1x + 3.7
+4.9x -5

2.8x - 1.3 (answer)
The percentage change is 6.54%
You have to divide 1800÷1926, then multiply by 100 and you'd get 93.46, then subtract 100-93.46 which equals 6.54% :)
62$ (earns of 1 week) multiplied with 52 weeks (how often he earns the 62$) is 3224
1y - 1/x = 1/60 = x*y =60 = x=60/y
3y - 2(60/y) = 6
3y^2-120=6y
3(y^2-40-2y) =0
y^2-40-2y=0
y = 7.4
3(7.4)-2x=6
22.2-2x = 6
2x = -16.2
x = -8.1
