Andres michael bought a new boat. he took out a loan for $24,000 at 2.75% interest for 4 years. he made a $4,210 partial payment at 4 months and another partial payment of $3,240 at 6 months. how much is due at maturity? (do not round intermediate calculations. round your answer to the nearest cent.)

(-8,5) bu tun not sure ok

I’m pretty sure the * means multiplication. so, if you multiply 5*1, it would equal 5. they are basically are-writing 5x1 as 5*1. so they would be… 5 10152025303540455055

So the first thing we do is to multiply the top equation by 3. the reason i want to do this is i notice there will be a 6y on both equations and can possibly add/subtract them. so we get 6y = -3x + 27. adding that and the second equation we get 6x = 27-15 which is 12. divide by 6 and we get 2. ∴ x = 2. substituting 2 into the first equation we get 2y = -2 + 9 which is 7. divide by 2 and we get 7/2. ∴ y = 7/2, x = 2.
