Substitution doesn't work for this, but elimination does.
-6x-8y=-20 +6( x+6y=-6)
-6x-8y=-20 + 6x+36y=-36
-6x and 6x cancel each other, add -8 and 36 to get 28, and -20 and -36 to get -56.
28y=-56
divide by 28 on both sides.
Y= -2
Then substitute y into one of the equations.
x+6(-2)=-6
x-12=-6
x=6
The ordered pair is (6,-2).
Answer:
£910
Step-by-step explanation:
let 3x and 7x be the initial amounts in their accounts, then after alterations
Terry has 3x + 220
Faye has 7x - 300
After these changes the amounts are equal, hence
7x - 300 = 3x + 220 ( subtract 3x from both sides )
4x - 300 = 220 ( add 300 to both sides )
4x = 520 ( divide both sides by 4 )
x = 130
Faye initially had 7 × £130 = £910 in her account
