X = 4 , y = -1
Explanation:
solve by elimination ie eliminate x or y from the equations by performing operations on them.
first label the equations , to follow the process.
x - y = 5 ----------------(1)
x+ y = 3 ----------------(2)
If (1) and (2) are added then y will be eliminated.
(1) + (2) gives : 2x = 8 → x = 4
now substitute this value of x into either of the 2 equations and solve for y.
let x = 4 in (1) : 4 - y = 5 → -y = 1 → y = -1
check in (1) : 4-(-1) = 4+1 = 5
check in(2) : 4 - 1 = 3

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
She paid back $192 in interest
Step-by-step explanation:
A = P(1+r)^n
P = $1,200
r = 10.5% = 0.105
n = 18 months = 18/12 = 1.5 years
A = 1,200(1+0.105)^1.5 = 1,200(1.105)^1.5 = 1,200×1.16 = 1,392
Amount = $1,392
Principal = $1,200
Interest = amount - principal = $1,392 - $1,200 = $192
