You can make an equation with this information using a variable for the number of days and solve for that variable. Here we can use d to represent days.

Ryan can build 4 desks in a day, so you could express his production as 4d.

Larry can build 4 desks in 2 days, so you could say he makes 2 desks in 1 day, expressed as 2d.

If Larry starts work one day before Ryan, he's made an extra 2 desks. To get 32 desks, you need to add together those 2 desks Larry made, however many desks Larry can make, and however many desks Ryan can make:

2 + 4d + 2d = 32.

Then just simplify and solve:

6d = 30
d = 5.

It'll take 5 days for them to make 32 desks. Hope this helps! Please rate this answer as brainliest if you liked it!! thank you!!!

Answer:

x>9

Step-by-step explanation:

Tamika already has $55, which will stay the same independent of how much time passes. Since she deposits $5 per week, we can assign weeks a variable x. The amount of money in her account after x weeks is equal to 55+5x. If she must save over $100, we can create an inequality to solve for how many weeks must pass: 55+5x>100.

The question also asks to solve the inequality:

  1. 55+5x>100
  2. 5x>100-55 (Subtract 55 from each side)
  3. 5x>45
  4. x>9 (Divide each side by 5)

This solution tells us that Tamika must save for more than nine weeks to have more than $100 in her account.

lmk if i made an error, hope this helps!!
