I would solve the first equation for x and then sub that value into x in the second equation. That's the easiest way. x - 2y = 3 solved for x is x = 2y+3. Now sub that in for x in the second equation: 5(2y+3)+3y=2 and 10y + 15 + 3y = 2. 13y = -13, and y = -1. Now sub that y value into either equation to solve for x: x = 2(-1) + 3 gives us an x value of x = 1. Therefore, your solution to this system is (1, -1), first choice above.
The future worth (F) of the investment at present (P) with a compound interest i after n years is calculated through the equation,
F = P x (1 + i)^n
Substituting the known values,
F = ($200) x (1 + 0.07)^5 = $280.51
Thus, the future worth of the investment is approximately $280.51.
Answer:
it should be step 2
Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: 5 < x < 21</h3>
Explanation:
Let x be the length of the third side. We can't find the exact value of x, as we don't have enough info, but we can find possible values for x.
The lower boundary for x is 13-8 = 5. It must be larger than this value.
At the same time, x must be smaller than 13+8 = 21 as well.
So x > 5 and x < 21 becomes 5 < x < 21
In short, x is between 5 and 21. It cannot equal either endpoint.
