Let

x---------> amount of money saved by Mark

x---------> amount of money saved by Neil


we know that

x=y+258-------> equation 1

x/y=(7/4)-------> equation 2

substitute equation 1 in equation 2

(y+258) /y=7/4--------> 4*(y+258)=7*y------> 4y+1032=7y

7y-4y=1032--------> 3y=1032------> y=$344

x=344+258------>x=$602


the answer is

$602

How much money will she have if she doesn't buy any packs of baseball cards? $16 $18 $19 $20
GrogVix [38]

The amount of money that Carly would have left if she doesn't buy any packs of baseball cards is $20.

<h3>How to calculate the amount of money?</h3>

In order to calculate the amount of money that Carly would have left if she doesn't buy any packs of baseball cards, we would determine the cost of each baseball card as follows:

  • Let the cost of each baseball card be x.
  • Let the number of cards bought be n.

Translating the word problem into an algebraic expression, we have;

x - n = 16

x - 2n = 12

Solving the simultaneous equations by elimination, we have:

n = 4

Therefore, Carly's minimum balance is given by:

x - n = 16

x = 16 + n

x = 16 + 4

x = $20.

A rectangular turtle aquarium is 6 ft long by 4 ft wide. The aquarium is enlarged by increasing
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

8ft x 6ft

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, we want to create measurements of length and width that double our current area.  First we need to find the current area.

C_Length = 6 ft

C_Width = 4 ft

C_Area = C_Length * C_Width

C_Area = 6 ft * 4 ft = 24 ft^2

Now we want our new area to be double the old area.

N_Area = 2C_Area

N_Area = 2 * 24 ft^2

N_Area = 48 ft^2

Now we simply need to find the increase in width and length, distributed equally, that will create the new area.

N_Area = (C_Length + x) * (C_Width + x)

Where x is the amount that each variable is increased by to create the new area.

Now we simply solve for x.

N_Area = (C_Length + x) * (C_Width + x)

48 = (6 + x) * (4 + x)

48 = 24 + 10x + x^2

0 = -24 + 10x + x^2

Now we can either apply the quadratic formula or attempt to factor using the constant break down method.

(x + 12) (x - 2) = 0

x = -12; x = 2

Note that we will choose x = 2 since the other option would require us to have negative material, which is impossible.

Now we can check to validate our answer by plugging in the value of x.

48 ?= (6 + 2) * (4 + 2)

48 ?= (8) * (6)

48 == 48

Thus, we have found the dimensions of the new aquarium, 8ft x 6ft.

Cheers.
