Using a system of equations, it is found that Charlie won $270.
<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>
A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.
In this problem, the variables are:
- Variable x: Amount earned by Linda.
- Variable y: Amount earned by Charlie.
Linda won $10 less than three times as much as Charlie, hence:
x = 3y - 10
Linda won $800, hence the amount won by Charlie is found as follows:
800 = 3y - 10
3y = 810
y = 810/3
y = 270

I believe this question is referring to purchasing a discount on a loan's interest rate by putting more towards closing costs. For mortgages, sometimes they will allow you to "buy" a smaller interest rate. For example:
<span>Loan A has an interest rate of 4.5% and no closing costs. </span>
<span>Loan B has an interest rate of 4.375%, but has $1000 in closing costs. </span>
<span>Normally, Loan A would be the better choice if you plan on keeping the home short term, but Loan B would be more beneficial for keeping the loan long-term. I don't really care to spend the time that is necessary to come up with an actual scenario, but I hope that helps enough for you to understand the question.</span>
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
1.9 about 2, and 4.4 is about 4.
2x4=8
So it is safe to say between 4 and 10.
