The required equation is <u>135 + 9x > 250</u>.

The number of lawns Ed must mow is assumed to be x.

The amount Ed charges for each lawn he mows is $9.

Thus, the total amount Ed earns by mowing x lawns = $9x.

The savings which Ed has is $135.

Thus, the total amount Ed will have to spend can be written as the expression, $(135 + 9x).

The cost of the video game is given to be $250.

We are asked to write an equation, that can be used to find the number of lawns Ed mow, that is x so that the amount Ed has will be more than the amount he needs to buy the video game.

This can be shown as the equation:

Total amount Ed has > Cost of the video game,

or, 135 + 9x > 250.

Thus, the required equation is <u>135 + 9x > 250</u>.

How long will it take to earn $1800 in interest if $6000 is invested at a 6% annual interest rate? how many years

Simora [160]

Answer:

Total interest will $1800 after 5 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the principle amount is $6000.

Rate of interest rate is 6% per annum.

Total interest is $1800.

Formula for simple interest is

$I=\frac{P\times r\times t}{100}$

Where, P is principle, r is rate of interest in percent and t is time in years.

Substitute P=6000, r=6 and I=1800 in the above formula.

$1800=\frac{6000\times 6\times t}{100}$

$1800=\frac{36000t}{100}$

$1800=360t$

Divide both sides by 360.

$\frac{1800}{360}=t$

$5=t$

Therefore the total interest will $1800 after 5 years.

Jeremiah received $65 for his birthday and used part of it to buy 3 video games. The games cost the same amount, and he had $14

hram777 [196]

Jeremiah got $65 on birthday and spent some money on 3 video games and was left with $14.

He purchased 3 video games.

Let the cost one one video game be v.

The cost of each video game is same

So the cost of 3 video games is 3v.

Also he is left with $14 after paying for three games.

Hence

3v + 14 = 65

Subtracting 14 from both sides

3v + 14 -14 = 65-14

3v = 51

Dividing by 3 on both sides

v = 51/3

v = 17

Hence the cost of each video game is $17
