Let the value of the car be represented by V and the amount of years by y.
This gives us the following formula:
V = 25,635 - 3000y
(This is because we start with a value of $25,635 and the value decreases by $3,000 every year 'y')
Now, we want to know when the car is worth $3,135, so we know V = 3,135
Now we can make up our equation:
25,365 - 3,000y = 3,135
Collecting terms gives us:
-3,000y = -22,500
Finally we divide by -3,000 to find 'y'
y = -22,500 / -3,000 = 7.5
Hence, the car will be worth $3,135 after 7.5 years.
k<2(3.5) or simplified k<7
Well think of it like this. lets say your teacher made you do this problem -48 - 10. I would just act like 48 is not an negative and add 10. After that I would put the negative back. So the answer would be -58. :P

Answer:
m + n = 15
m - 3 = n
The numbers are 9 and 6
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question,
The sum of two numbers is fifteen; the first number is m and the second number is n. To translate to a system of equations, we can write that
m + n = 15 ..... (1)
Also, from the question,
One number is three less than the other,
Also, to translate to a system of equations, we can write that
m - 3 = n ...... (2)
If desired, we can determine m and n
From equation (1)
m + n = 15
Then,
m = 15 - n ...... (3)
Put the value of m in equation (3) into equation (2)
m - 3 = n
Then
15 - n - 3 = n
15 - 3 = n + n
12 = 2n
n = 12/2
∴ n = 6
For m, put the value of n into equation 3
m = 15 - n
m = 15 - 6
m = 9
∴ m = 9 and n = 6
Hence, the numbers are 9 and 6
