Remark
The basic equation is y = mx + b
y = the total amount of money
m = The amount of money he save each month (it is a constant).
b = the y intercept which is his starting amount or 120 dollars.
x = the number of months (this is a variable).
After 3 months he has 840 dollars. That's y
840 = 3*m + 120 Subtract 120 from both sides
840 - 120 = 3m
720 = 3m
240 = m So he saves 240 every month.
Now the equation becomes.
y = 240 * x + 120
Savings after 24 months
y = Total
m = 240 dollars/month
x = 24 months
b = 120
y = 24*240 + 120
y = 5760 + 120
y = 5580
He had 5580 dollars after saving for 2 years (or 24 months total) This assumes that when he started, he took his birthday money and added a 1 month payment to it
<span> x^2 +(x-4)^2 =20^2</span>
<span> x^2 +(x-4)^2 =400</span>
x^2 +(x-4)^2 -400=0
factor:
2x^2-8x-384=0
Factor the 2 out of 2X^2
2(x-16) (x+12) =0
<span> Divide both sides by 2</span>
(x-16) (x+12) =0
X=16 , x=-12
<span> Number cannot be negative so x=16</span>

Given: 
Find: 
Solution: In order to determine if (1, 1) is a solution we need to plug in 1 for the x values and 1 for the y values and see if the equation evaluated to true.
<u>Plug in the values</u>
<u>Simplify</u>
As we can see the expression states that 1 is less than or equal to -2 which is false therefore (1, 1) is NOT a solution of the inequality.
