Alberto’s salary was $2000 greater than 4 times Nick’s salary. Write an equation stating Alberto’s and Nick’s salaries in terms of x and y.
If Alberto's salary is x and Nick's is y, we have:
x = 4y + 2000 (since greater than means we add)
If Alberto's salary is x and Nick's is y, we have:
x = 4y + 2000 (since greater than means we add)
