Dawn has two bank accounts she has been using to save money for a car. The difference between account A and account B is $100. If she uses StartFraction 3 Over 8 EndFraction of account A and StartFraction 7 Over 8 EndFraction of account B, Dawn will have a down payment of $2000. Choose the statements that are true when solving for the amount Dawn has in each account. Check all that apply.
One of the equations that represents this scenario is A – B = 100.
One of the equations that represents this scenario is 3/8A + 7/8B= 2000
To eliminate the A variable, multiply the first equation by 3 and the second by 8.
To eliminate the B variable, multiply the first equation by 7 and the second by 8.
To eliminate the B variable, multiply the first equation by 7 and the second by –8.
