2/7x - 2/5x = 8
multiply both sides by 35
= 10x - 14x = 280
combine 10x and 14x
= -4x = 280
divide both sides by -4
x= -70

We have to convert 2% in to a decimal then multiply it into the x-value which is the months with the addition of 500 because that is the start value.If you were to graph this it would be a linear fuction, y=0.2x+500. The rate of change is found by slope, so rise over run. taking 2 points on the graph and do this
(y 2-y 1)/(x 2-x 1) and graph the equation and get two of the points and find the slope for the rate of change.

enyata [817]

Answer:

Cara:108

Step-by-step explanation:

John: x number of cards

Cara: 12 times x number of cards(she has 12 times more cards than John)

Cara+John=117 cards

12 \times x + x = 117 \\ 13x = 117 \\ x =  \frac{117}{13}  \\ x = 9

Cara has 12×9 cards, so she has 108 cards.

Hope this was helpful :)
