Let w = number of weeks.

In week w,
Laura has: 720 + 30w
Taylor has: 1200 - 30w

Set the two amounts equal and solve for w, the number of weeks.

720 + 30w = 1200 - 30w

60w = 480

w = 8

They will have the same amount of money in 8 weeks.

Laura will have in 8 weeks:
720 + 30w = 720 + 30 * 8 = 720 + 240 = 960

Taylor will have in 8 weeks:
1200 - 30w = 1200 - 30 * 8 = 1200 - 240 = 960

They will both have $960 in 8 weeks.

a bag contains 56 marbles. each marble is either red, green, or yellow. a marble is randomly removed from the bag and then retur
zhenek [66]

The first time I solved this problem, I did it in a way that I had to
mess with changing fractions to common denominators and all that. 
Suddenly, however, the clean and easy way to do it dawned on me. 
Here it is:

-- There are 56 marble in the bag.

-- The probability of pulling a red marble is 5/8, so
5/8 of the 56 marbles must be red.
5/8 of 56 = 35 red marbles.

-- The probability of pulling a green marble is 1/7,
so 1/7 of the 56 marbles must be green.
1/7 of 56 = 8 green marbles.

-- The red and green marbles make up (35 + 8) = 43
of the 56 marbles in the bag.

-- The rest of them are yellow.
   There are  (56 - 43) = 13 yellow marbles in the bag.

-- The probability of pulling a yellow marble is  13/56 .    (about 23.2%)

No messy fractions at all !
That's the way I like it !

A person earns $43,200 one year and receives an 8% raise in salary. What is the new salary?
Ne4ueva [31]
$46656..... you multiply the $43200 by the 8% which would be .08 then you have 3456, so you add 3456 to your original number and it gives you 46656
