Answer:
-3x - 7y
Step-by-step explanation:
x - (4x - 2y) - 5y
x - 4x - 2y - 5y
Combine like terms
x - 4x = -3x
-2y - 5y = -7y
Now, we have our final answer:
-3x - 7y
Answer:
4 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x----------> number of weeks
y----------> saved money
we now that
<span>Michael begins with $20 and saves $5 per week
so
y=20+5x------> equation 1
and
</span><span>Lindsey begins with no money, but saves $10 per week
</span><span>y=10x-------> equation 2
</span><span>the number of weeks it will take for Lindsey and Michael to save the same amount of money is when equation 1 is equals to equation 2
</span>
therefore
20+5x=10x------> 10x-5x=20------> 5x=20-----> x=20/5-----> x=4 weeks
the answer is
4 weeks
-18.2 + 3.6= -14.6 is the answer to the question
