Since the second equation gives a value for a, we can substitute it into the other equation to find a value for B.
Let's substitute b-2 into the first equation wherever there is an a.
a - 3b = 4
(b-2) - 3b = 4
b - 2 - 3b = 4
-2 - 2b = 4
-2b = 6
b = -3
Now let's find a by substituting -3 into either of the equations to find the value of a.
a = b - 2
a = -3 - 2
a = -5
So your solution set is (-5, -3)

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given</u>
- Monthly payment P = $300
- Time t = 3 years = 36 months
- Number of payments n = 36
- Interest rate r = 12% PA = 1% per month = 0.01 times
<u>Use loan payment formula:</u>
- P = r(PV) / (1 - (1 + r)⁻ⁿ),
- where P- monthly payment, PV - present value (amount of the loan), r -rate of interest, n- number of payments
<u>Substitute values and solve for PV:</u>
- 300 = (0.01*PV) / (1 - (1 + 0.01)⁻³⁶)
- PV = 300*(1 - 1.01⁻³⁶ )/ 0.01
- PV = 9032.25 ≈ $9000 (rounded to the nearest hundred dollars)
1 ton is 2000 pounds your answer is 7000 pounds
