The solution to the system is then
Answer:
139 ( D )
Step-by-step explanation:
Interest rate on loan = 4% = 0.04
Number of payments = 15
First 10 payments = 100 each
last 5 payments = 200 each
Calculating the value of K
K = [ ( 100 / 0.04 * ( 1-1 / 1.04^10 ) + 200/0.04 * ( 1-1 / (1 +0.04)^5)* 1 /1.04^10)
* 1.1 - 100 / 0.04 * ( 1-1 / (1+0.04)^5 ) - 200/0.04 * (1-1 /1.04^5) * 1/1.04^10)*0.04 / ( 1-1 / 1.04^5) * (1 + 0.04)^5
= 138.6051 ≈ 139
Step-by-step explanation:
We have y = 13 - 3x and y = 7 - x.
=> 13 - 3x = 7 - x
=> 2x = 6, x = 3.
Then y = 7 - (3), y = 4.
Hence the price of a pencil is $3 and the price of a notebook is $4. (C)
