Answer:
$65,800
Step-by-step explanation:
Convert the word problem to math:
[Price of Marc's car]+[$7800 difference]=[Price of Marc's Wife's car]
or in numbers:
$58000+$7800=$65800
Answer: $32900
Step-by-step explanation:
The SUV is 7800 less than twice what his wife paid for the car.
Using the slope equation y = mx + b, this can be represented with the equation 58000 = 2x - 7800.
The x represents how much his wife paid for her car.
Adding 7800 to each side makes the equation 65800 = 2x.
Solving for x by dividing both sides by 2 makes the equation 32900 = x.
Therefore, his wife paid $32900 for her car.
