Question 1178475: Suppose that the annual fee for a warehouse club
membership is $50 and that the reward rate on club purchases for the year is 1.6%.
Then the actual annual cost of a membership y, in dollars, for an amount of annual
club purchases x, in dollars, can be modeled by the following linear equation.
y = 50 - 0.016 x
(a) Determine the actual annual cost of the membership if club purchases for the
year are $1500.
(b) What amount of club purchases would reduce the actual annual cost of the membership
to $0?
(c) If club purchases for the year exceed $3125, how is the actual annual membership
cost affected?

Question 1178363: The table of conversion from flat interest rate to reducing balance interest rate is based on the formula F= (1+R)^n (nR-1)+1/ n(1+R)^n-n, where F is the flat rate per month, R is the reducible rate per month and n is the number of monthly payments. To get the monthly rate, divide the annual rate by 12. Calculate the approximate flat interest rate for 8% per annum reducible for 3 years.

Question 1179096: Solve the following system of equations for the unknown variables.
3x + 3y = 3
-3x - 2z = -11
y + z = -1
so far i have
y=1-x
x=(2z-11)/-3
and z=-1-y
i cannot figure how to get these equations to solve for a single variable. I am used to problems that have all variables in at least two of the equations. each equation having only two variables has thrown me for a loop...
please help!
Thank you!
