1) name the variables:
- amount in account 1 "a"
- amount in account 2 "b"
2) trtanslate the statements into equations:
<span>- the
difference between account 1 and account 2 is $100.
=> a - b = 100
- if she uses 3/8 of
account 1 and 7/8 of account 2, Dawn will have a down payment of $2,000.
=> (3/8)a + (7/8)b = 2000
3) solve the system of equations
(1) a - b = 100
(2) (3/8)a + (7/8b) = 2000
Steps:
- multiply equation (1) by 7 and equaton (2) by 8
=>
(1) 7a - 7b = 700
(2) 3a + 7b = 16,000
- add the two equations
=>
7a + 3a - 7b + 7b = 700 + 16,000
- combine like terms:
10a = 16,700
- divide by 10:
a = 16,700 / 10 = 1670
- use equation (1) to find b:
a - b = 100 => b = a - 100 = 1670 - 100 = 1570
Answer: Dawn has $ 1670 in account 1 and
$ 1570 in account 2.

Tell me if it is wrong.
Thank you.
More algebra pretending to be geometry. These questions should be banished from the planet.
A transversal across parallel lines generates the usual congruent and supplementary angles; here our pair are supplementary, adding to 180 degrees. Geometry done.
(2x + 12.8) + 117.6 = 180
2x = 180 - (12.8 + 117.6) = 49.6
x = 49.6/2 = 24.8
Answer: 24.8
