At the bank, Derek made 7 withdrawals, each in the same amount. His brother, John, made 5 withdrawls, each in the same amount.
Let x be the amount of one of Derek's withdrawals
Each of John's withdrawals was $5 more than each withdrawal that Derek made.
x + 5 is t the amount of one of John's withdrawals
Derek made 7 withdrawals
So amount withdraw 7 times = 7x
John made 5 withdrawals
So amount withdraw 5 times = 5(x+5)
Both Derek and John withdrew the same amount of money in the end
(A) 7x = 5(x+5)
(B) Solve for x
7x = 5x + 25
Subtract 5x from both sides
2x = 25
Divide by 2
x = 12.5
(C) check your solution
we plug in 12.5 for x in 7x= 5x + 25
7(12.5) = 5(12.5) + 25
87.5 = 62.5+ 25
87.5 = 87.5
(D) Each brother withdrawal 87.5 dollars
Answer:
It's table D
Step-by-step explanation:
I just took the test.
Answer:
i think the answer is 2.I had a problem like this and i think u have to find out what both of them equal
slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m =(-2-7)/(8-0)
m =(-9/8)
slope is -9/8
the y intercept is 7 (0,7)
y = mx +b
y = -9/8 x+7
Answer: y = -9/8x +7
