Answer:

USD 17,358.72.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for this math problem, we can write:

2x - 1,070.78 = 33,646.66

Whereas x represents the value of her old car, thus, we obtain:

2x = 33,646.66 + 1,070.78

x = 34717.44 / 2

x = 17,358.72

It means that her first car costed USD 17,358.72.

Best regards.
