Answer: the service charge per hour for premium services is $5.5
the service charge per hour for regular services is $3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the service charge per hour for premium services.
Let y represent the service charge per hour for regular services.
One customer was charged $38 after spending 2 h in premium areas and 9 regular hours. It means that
2x + 9y = 38- - - - - - - - - - - 1
Another customer spent 3 h in premium areas and 6 regular hours and was charged $34.50. It means that
3x + 6y = 34.5- - - - - - - - - - -2
We would eliminate x by multiplying equation 1 by 3 and equation 2 by 2. It becomes
6x + 27y = 114
6x + 12y = 69
Subtracting, it becomes
15y = 45
y = 45/15
y = 3
Substituting y = 3 into equation 1, it becomes
2x + 9 × 3 = 38
2x + 27 = 38
2x = 38 - 27 = 11
x = 11/2 = 5.5
Not sure if this is correct but:
Step-by-step explanation: P = 2000
R = 5% = 0.05
n = 4
y = 2000 ( 1 + 
) 
= 2000 ( 1.0125 )
Substitute values in the compound interest formula:
y = P ( 1 + 
)
.

Answer: the old price for 1 liter is $0.3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the old price for 1 liter of petrol.
Last week a man bought 20 liters at the old price. This means that the total amount that the man paid for 20 liters is 20x.
The cost of petrol rises by 2 cents a liter. This means that the new price per liter is x + 2/100 = x + 0.02
This week he bought 10 liters at the new price. This means that the total amount that the man paid for 10 liters is
10(x + 0.02)
= 10x + 0.2
Altogether, the petrol costs $9.20. This means that
20x + 10x + 0.2 = 9.2
30x + 0.2 = 9.2
30x = 9.2 - 0.2
30x = 9
x = 9/30
x = 0.3
