The best way to solve is by using elimination method.
20x = -58 - 2y
17x = -49 - 2y
Multiply second equation by -1
20x = -58 - 2y
-17x = 49 + 2y
Add equations.
3x = -9
Divide.
x = -3
Plug in -3 into one of the equations.
17(-3) = -49 - 2y
-51 = -49 - 2y
Add 49 to both sides.
-2 = -2y
Divide.
1 = y
So your solution is (-3, 1).

Answer:
12.36%
Step-by-step explanation:
For year 1:
T(1) = 1000(1.06)¹
T(1) = 1060
After two years, t = 3
T(3) = 1000(1.06)³
T(3) = 1191.06
The percent of the increase is
[(T(3) - T(2)/T(2)]*100%
[(1191.06 - 1060)/1060]*100%
12.36%
Max mows a yard in 45 minutes and Jan takes twice as long mowing the same yard. If Max and Jan both work together, it will take approximately 30 minutes to for them both to mow the yard.
It take Max 1 minute to mow 1/45 of the yard.
It takes Jan 1 minute to mow 1/90 of the yard.
1/45+1/90 =3/90 = 1/30 of the yard can be mowed by both in just one minute. This is how to get the answer, 30 minutes.
