Answer:
1 month
Step-by-step explanation:
249 is the amount she spends for buying the kitten, (299-50=249) which she only has to pay once.
20 is the amount she has to spend every month, the rate of change.
The problem can be modeled with the general equation:
y = 20x + 249
In this equation, x the the time in months and y is the amount of money spent.
Substitute 250 for y.
y = 20x + 249
250 = 20x + 249 <= isolate x to get the number of months
1 = 20x
x = 1/20
Carol will only spent money every month, not for 1/20 of a month.
It will only take Carol 1 month to spent $250.
Check answer:
Substitute x for 1
y = 20x + 249
y = 20(1) + 249
y = 269
269 is more than 250 already.
1:3 is the ratio to boys and girls. I know that 1/4 must be girls. 3/4 will be boys.
Divide 236 by 4.
236/4= 59
Multiply that by 3.
59*3= 177
177 of the students are boys.
I hope this helps!

The correct answers are:
- The ordered pair (7, 19) is a solution to the first equation because it makes the first equation true.
- The ordered pair (7, 19) is not a solution to the system because it makes at least one of the equations false.
Further explanation:
Given equations are:
2x-y = -5
x+3y = 22
We have to check whether the given statements are true or not. In order to find that we have to put the points in the equations
Putting the point in 2x-y = -5
Putting the point in x+3y=22
The point satisfies the first equation but doesn't satisfy the second. So,
1. The ordered pair (7, 19) is a solution to the first equation because it makes the first equation true.
This statement is true as the point satisfies the first equation
2. The ordered pair (7, 19) is a solution to the second equation because it makes the second equation true.
This Statement is false.
3. The ordered pair (7, 19) is not a solution to the system because it makes at least one of the equations false.
This statement is true.
4. The ordered pair (7, 19) is a solution to the system because it makes both equations true.
This statement is false as the ordered pair doesn't satisfy both equations.

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer: N = 143
Discussion:
This one took some trial and error! At first I listed all 2 digit primes, looked at the list, but didn't know how to proceed. So, I took the smallest 2 digit primes numbers: 11 and 13 and wondered if their product, 13*11 = 143, could be represented as the sum of 3 consecutive primes. I went back to my list of primes, added groups of three consecutive numbers that seemed to be in the right range to give the desired sum, and stumbled on 43, 47, and 53!
43 + 47 + 53 = 143 !
Therefore N = 143. It's the sum of 43, 47, and 53 as well as the product of 11 and 13.
Thank you,
MrB
