3x+y=8
y=8-3x
5x+3(8-3x)=8
5x+24-9x=8
-4x+24=8
-4x=-16
x=4
5x+3y=8
5(4)+3y=8
20+3y=8
3y=-12
Y=-4
5x+3y=8
5(4)+3(-4)=8
20+-12=8
8=8
3 times a year for 2 years is equal to 3 x 2, or 6. So we know that she will have to pay her bill 6 times.
The cost for each trimester is $1450, but we still have to add the book costs ($350). So, 1450 + 350 = 1800.
Now we know that she has to pay $1800 six times. So the equation will be:
1800 x 6 = 10800.
It will cost Samantha $10,800 to get her degree.
