Answer:

The value of y is -5

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

9x+2y=8 ------> equation A

7x+2y=4 ------> equation B

we know that

If x and y satisfy both equations, then (x,y) is the solution of the system of equations

Using a graphing tool

Remember that

The solution of the systems of equations is the intersection point both graphs

The intersection point is (2,-5)

therefore

The solution of the system of equations is the point (2,-5)

The value of y is -5

"The last time I bought this product, it cost $20.00 but it looks like it costs $29.60 today. Why such a large increase?"
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

The company decided to increase the price by $9.60, or by 48%.

Step-by-step explanation:

To measure the price difference in dollars is simple, just subtract the old price from the new one:

29.60 - 20 = 9.60

Divide the price change by the old price to find the price increase in percentage:

9.60 \div 20 = 0.48 \\ 0.48 \times 100\% = 48\%
