Answer: The initial cost of the car was $10000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the initial cost of the car.

From her research , she realised that the car's current value is 5500

This is 55% of the amount that mrs merson paid on the car. This means that the current price of the car is 55 percent of x. It becomes

Current price of car = 5500 = 55/100×x

5500 = 0.55x

x = 5500/0.55

x = $10000

Since abuyer wants to know the price that Mrs Merson paid for the car, the price that he should be told is $10000. This shows that the price of the car reduced or fell.

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

Question 1. (2.2, -1.4)

Question 2. (1.33, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations for the given lines are

-----(1)

It is given that this line passes through two points (0, 2.5) and (2.2, 1.4).

------(2)

This equation passes through (0, -3) and (2.2, -1.4).

Now we have to find a common point through which these lines pass or solution of these equations.

From equations (1) and (2),

x =

x = 2.2

From equation (2),

y = -1.4

Therefore, solution of these equations is (2.2, -1.4).

Question 2.

The given equations are y = 1.5x - 1 and y = 1

From these equations,

1 = 1.5x - 1

1.5x = 2

x =

Therefore, the solution of the system of linear equations is (1.33, 1).

Which equation combines with the given equation to form a system of equations with the solution x = 3 and y = 9? x + 2y = 21
max2010maxim [7]
Yes. x=3 and y =9 are the solutions.
 Because if you change x=3 and y =9 ,you will have 
3+2* 9 =21
3+18 =21
21 =21 (true)
