Here we can change the variables to real numbers, just to make things easier for us. For the sake of calculation, let’s say that x=10, y=6, and z=1.
So, y years from now, Yann will be x years old. If we plug in our randomly chosen numbers, we get that Yann will be 10 years old 6 years from now. This means that today, he would be x-y years old, or 10-6, so 4 years old today.
Next we ask how old he was z years ago, or in this case, 1 year ago. We know that if you’re 4 years old now, you were 3 years old last year. In other words, you’re 4-1 years old, or x-y-z years old.
Your answer is x-y-z.

Answer:
$395.83
Step-by-step explanation:
to solve, we first need to subtract what we already have, first the scholarship, wich is a set amount being taken from the original amount
12'000 - 2'500 = 9'500
now we have the second subtracting factor, but this one isn't set in stone and defined, it is half of the amount his parents will pay, so what we can do is divide what we have by two, wich will give us 2 halves
9'500 / 2 = 4'750
now all we have to do is divide again but this time for each month that Daniel needs to save up in, in this case 12
4'750 / 12 = 395.83 (note1)
and there we have it, that is the minimum amount Daniel would save each month
note1: (3 goes on for infinity, usualy this is represented by a line above the repeating number, this is the case of a repeating decimal)
Answer: x = -1 and y = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
So if you know y = x-1 you can plug that in where y is in the first equation
-4x + 3(x-1) = -2
Distribute the 3:
-4x +3x -3 = -2
Combine like terms:
-x -3 = -2
Add 3 to both sides:
-x = 1
Multiply by -1:
X = -1
Then you plug that into the other equation to get y=(-1)-1
Which is -2
