Answer: It will take Damon 6 weeks to save the money he needs to buy the snowboard
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's see what the problem is giving us:
-The variable X will represent the number of weeks it will take Damon to save the money he needs.
- Damon has $40
- Damon is going to safe $20 weekly
- The snowboard costs $160
Therefor:
Our equation will be: $40 + $20X = $160
Step 1
We need to isolate the variable by subtracting in both sides of the equation 40 in order to maintain the equality.
40 - 40 + 20X = 160 - 40
This will let us with 20X = 120
Step 2
We have to isolate the variable again, but this time (because the variable is being multiplied by 20) we have to divide on both sides of the equation.
20X/20 = 120/20
Therefore: X=6

keeping in mind that parallel lines have the same exact slope, hmmm what's the slope of 4x - 2y = 3 anyway? well, let's put it in slope-intercept form firstly.
a)
so we're looking for a line whose slope is 2 and passes through 2,1.
b)

1 metric ton = 1,000 kilograms
To convert from kilograms to metric tons, divide by 1,000.
10,600÷1,000=10.6 metric tons
