Melinda and Marcus are saving money to purchase a present for a friend. Each friend starts with an amount and also saves a speci

fic amount each week.
Melinda created a table to show the total she has saved at the end of each week.
Weeks 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40
Amount saved 75 135 195 255 315 375 435 495 555



Marcus came up with the following equation to show the total, y, he has saved at the end of each week, x.

y = 14x + 25



Compare the rate at which each friend saves money.


The rate at which Melinda is adding to her savings each week is $
less than the rate at which Marcus is adding to his savings each week.

Let's find the rates at which Melinda and Marcus are saving money and compare them. 
Based on the table, we can see that Melinda originally had $75. Then she got $135 in 5 weeks.  So the rate of saving money is (135–75)/5 = $12 per week.
This rate is unchanged for the next weeks. As we can see, she got $195 in the next 5 weeks. So she saved $60 more those 5 weeks, or the rate is $60/5 = $12 per week again. 

So Melinda saved $12 per week.
As for Marcus, the equation tells us that the rate of saving money is $14 which is the coefficient in front of x.

Hence, t<span>he rate at which Melinda is adding to her savings each week is 2$
less than the rate at which Marcus is adding to his savings each week.</span>

What is the surface area of the above composite object made out of two rectangular prisms?
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

  550 mm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

A net can be drawn as shown in the first figure attached. Each square represents 5 mm by 5 mm, so is 25 mm^2. Altogether, there are 22 of them, so the total area is ...

  (25 mm^2)·22 = 550 mm^2

The second attachment shows that net folded up to make the given figure.

_____

In the first attachment, the green shades represent the left- and right-side faces. (Darker green is left side.) The red and blue shades represent the front- and back-side faces. The white rectangles represent the top and bottom faces. The dark black lines are the cut lines. If you want to fold the figure up, the lighter lines are the fold lines.

The second attachment is just verification that all faces are accounted for and the net actually corresponds to the given figure.
