Investment: cost of her education + salary as sales clerk during two years
Investment = 18,000 (2) + 20,000 = 36,000 + 20,000 = 56,000
Time to recover investment = 56,000/35,000 = 1.6
In less than two years, after she starts to work Niah will have recoverd her investment.
This question is worded slightly strangely but I believe I understand it.
To eliminate x, multiply the second equation by 8, so that it becomes 4x + .8y= 96
Then you can subtract 4x on the top by 4x on the bottom to eliminate it.
Answer:
d=0.031746
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Add 4d to both sides: 3.2=2.3d+3+4d
2. Simplify 2.3d +3+ 4d to 6.3d+3: 3.2=6.3d+3
3. Subtract 3 from both sides: 3.2-3=6.3d
4. Simplify 3.2-3 to 0.2: 0.2-6.3d
5. Divide both sides by 6.3: 0.2/6.3=d
6. Simplify 0.2/6.3 to 0.031746: 0.031746=d
7. Switch sides: d=0.031746
Hope this helped!
