Mr. Kyle will be expected to pay $8,100.
The total cost for his land would be 120 x 90 = 10,800.
Since the city is paying 25%, he must pay the other 75%.
0.75 x 10800 = 8100

Answer: True</h3>
Explanation:
Technically you could isolate any variable you wanted, from either equation. However, convention is to pick the variable in which isolating it is easiest, and most efficient.
The key thing to look for is if there's a coefficient of 1. This is found in the second equation for the y term. Think of -4x+y = -13 as -4x+1y = -13. Due to the coefficient of 1, when solving for y we won't involve messy fractions.
If you were to solve for y, then you'd get y = 4x-13, which is then plugged in (aka substituted) into the first equation. That allows you to solve for x. Once you know x, you can determine y.
As a percent is out of 100% or 1 (as a whole number), the best thing to do is multiply it by ten, until you get a whole number. As you cannot have a decimal in a percentage. 2.45x10= 24.5. This is still a decimal, so you need to multiply it be ten again, 24.5x10= 245.
Therefore, 2.45 is a percent is 245%
-4x + 7y = -8 . . . (1)
-5x + 6y = 1 . . . .(2)
(1) x 5 => -20x + 35y = -40 . . . (3)
(2) x 4 => -20x + 24y = 4 . . . . .(4)
(3) - (4) => 11y = -44 => y = -44/11 = -4
From (2), -5x + 6(-4) = 1 => -5x - 24 = 1 => -5x = 1 + 24 = 25 => x = 25/-5 = -5
Therefore, x = -5, y = -4
