1) considered x + y - 1 and x²y - 8x - 8y = 17 factor the first member of this equation and the x² value (with resolution)
2) if a = (x + 2) (x + 1) and b = (x + 1) (x + 2), calculate the value of a - b

You had $235 in your savings account nine weeks ago. you withdrew the same amount each week for 8 straight weeks. your balence was then $75. solve the equation 235 - 8m=75 to find how much money m you withdrew from your account each week. 2 points
