3x + 4y = 16
-4x - 3y = -19
4( 3x + 4y = 16)
3( -4x - 3y = -19)
Distribute
12x + 16y = 64
-12x - 9y = -57
Now subtract both equations
7y = 7
/7 on both sides
y = 1
Substitute y = 1 in one of the equations.
3x + 4y = 16
3x + 4(1) = 16
-4 on both sides
3x = 12
/3 on both sides
x = 4
Answer:
x = 4
y = 1
The total amount owed after 6 months will be found using the formula:
FV=P(1+r/100*n)^n
P=principle=$10000
r=rate=18%
n=terms=0.5
FV=10000(1+18/2*100)^0.5
FV=$10,440.30651
Thus the amount owed will be $10440.30651
Answer: c
-1.9+16= 14.1
14.1-7.1= 7.0
