  (x, y) = (5, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

When you have two equations in "y = ..." form, you can equate the two expressions for y.

  y = 2x -4

  y = x +1  . . . . . both are given

__

Equating y to itself, we have ...

  y = y

  2x -4 = x +1 . . . . . substitute the given expressions

  x = 5 . . . . . . . . . . add 4-x to both sides

Then either equation can be used to find y:

  y = x +1 = 5 +1 = 6

The solution is (x, y) = (5, 6).

step-by-step explanation:

change of stock price/initial stock price on friday * total stock value = change of stock value

0.89/73.73 *x = 42.72

x=3539.04 = total stock value at initial stock price on friday .

total stock value at initial stock price on friday/ initial stock price on friday = number of shares

3539.04/73.73 = 48 shares

they own 48 shares of this stock
