Answer:

The first option is to put $400 away initially and save $20 every month. Let she saves for x months. Equation becomes;

400+20x

The second option is to put $100 away initially and save $40 every month.  Let she saves for x months. Equation becomes;

100+40x

Equating both as equal we will get the number of months.

400+20x=100+40x

=> 40x-20x=400-100

=> 20x=300

x = 15

Hence, it will take 15 months to save the same amount.

And amount saved will be = 400+20(15)

= $700

1st month: $100 + 40 = 140 | 400 + 20 = 420
2nd month: 180 | 440
3rd month: 220 | 460
4th month: 260 | 480
5th month: 300 | 500
After five months, the distance between the amount of money saved has decreased by $100. 5 x 3 = 15, therefore the amount of money saved will be the same after 15 months. 

Hope this helps!

Answer:

<u>The correct answer is 58 1/2 feet. See below to understand the difference of both methods.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information provided to us for solving the question using both methods:

Area of each student = 4 1/2 square feet

Number of students = 13

2. Let's use the first method to solve the question:

4 1/2 = 9/2 (Improper fraction because the numerator, 9 is bigger than the denominator, 2)

9/2 * 13 = 117/2

<u>117/2 = 58 1/2 square feet</u>

3. Let's use the second method to solve the question:

4 1/2 = 4 + 1/2 (Using addition to rewrite the fraction)

(4 + 1/2) * 13 = (4 * 13) + (1/2 * 13) (Distributive property of the multiplication)

(4 * 13) + (1/2 * 13) = 52 + 13/2 = 52 + 6 1/2

<u>52 + 6 1/2 = 58 1/2 square feet</u>

Jack is 4 times as old as Lacy. 3 years from now the sum of their ages will be 71 . How old are they now?
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

Lacy is 13 and Jack is 52

Step-by-step explanation:

In 3 years their ages will add up to 71 so you have to subtract 6 as there are two of them to get 65. Lacy's age is represented by x and since Jack is 4 times older his age is represented by 4x. So added together their age is 5x. So 5x=65. Then 65/5=13. So 13=x. So Lacy is 13 and Jack is 52 as 13x4 is 52.
