Solve by substitution to find x and y

4=-x-y
2x-y=10

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Hello Jay

4=-x-y

2x-y=10

We need to solve 4=-x-y for x

Now add x to both sides

4+x=-x-y+x

x+4==-y

Add -4 to both sides

x+4-4=-y-4

x=-y-4

Now we need to substitute -y-4 for x in 2x-y=10

2x-y=10

2(-y-4)-y=10

To find the result of this factor we need to simplify

-3y-8=10

Add 8 to both sides so we can start finding the y value

-3y-8+8=10+8

-3y=18

Divide both sides by -3 so we can find the y value

-3y/-3=18/-3

y=-6

Now let's find the x value by substitute -6 for y in x=-y-4

x=-y-4

x=-(-6)-4

x=2

Answer: x=2 and y=-6

Nick's bank account balance was $21. if he writes a check for $30 and his bank charges him $35 for overdrawing his account, find his account balance

Answers

The balance of Nick's bankaccount is $86.

Concept:

  • As we have the bank balance after deducting the check amount and bank charges, we will add those amounts to the balance to get the initial bank balance.

How to solve this question?

  • Amount of Check = $30
  • Amount of Bank Charges = $35
  • Amount after deduction of Check and bank charges =$21
  • ∴ Initial bank balance = 21 + 30 + 35 = $86

Thus ,the balance of Nick's bank account is $86.
