Answer:

1.Equation ----- 8x=12

2. x=1.5

3. cost of a single song is $1.5

4.$12 gift card will download 8 songs

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of money the gift card holds is $12

Number of songs bought= 8 songs

Let the cost of a single song to be =$x

The cost of 8 songs will be =$x × 8=$ 8x

So the 8 songs will all cost $12

This means; $ 8x = $12

Equation------ 8x=12

Finding cost of a single song

8x=12------------------divide by 8 both sides

x=12/8------------------simplify

x=3/2 = $ 1.5

Checking for solution

if a single song costs $1.5 , who many songs can a gift card with $12 download?

Here we divide $12 by $1.5 = $12/$1.5= 8 songs------------correct number of songs as mentioned in the question.

Answer:

They will each have saved $70.

Jessica is saving at a faster rate than Raphael.

The rate at which Jessica is adding to her savings is $4 per week more than the rate at which Raphael is adding to his savings.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for Jessica’s savings is

y = 10x + 20

She is saving at the rate of $10/wk .

From Raphael’s table, he started with $40 and is saving at the rate of $6/wk.

The formula for Raphael’s savings is

y = 6x +40

When the two savings are equal

10x + 20 = 6x + 40     Subtract 20 from each side

       10x = 6x + 20     Subtract 6x from each side

        4x = 20              Divide each side by 4

          x = 5

Their savings will be equal after five weeks.

=====

After five weeks , Jessica will have saved

y = 10×5 + 20  

y = 50 + 20

y = $70

Raphael has also saved $70.

=====

Jessica is saving at a faster rate than Raphael.

She is saving at the rate of $10/wk, while he is saving at the rate of $6/wk.

The rate at which Jessica is adding to her savings is $4/wk more than the rate at which Raphael is adding to his savings.

The red line in the graph shows that Jessica starts with $20. After five weeks, she has caught up to Raphael, who also has $70 after five weeks.

You have $55,000 in your savings account that pays 2.5% annual interest and the inflation rate is 3.4%. how much buying power in
lianna [129]
Your interest formula is given to you. 

<span>Interest in a year = principal (the amount invested) * rate (the interest rate) * period (the time you're measuring) </span>

<span>Interest = 55,000 * 2% * 1 year = 55,000 * 0.02 * 1 = $1,100 </span>

<span>How much would you need to have made for your spending power to keep with inflation? Your interest rate would have needed to match the inflation rate, otherwise, prices are going up faster than you're saving. </span>

<span>Required interest = 55,000 * 3.24% * 1 year = 55,000 * 0.0324 * 1 = $1,782 </span>

<span>How much buying power did you lose? The difference between your required interest and your actual interest. </span>
<span>Buying power lost = 1,782 - 1,100 = $682. You lost this much in buying power. </span>

Select the correct inequality for the graph given
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

y<= 3x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

When it comes about inequalities, keep in mind the following

the < sign means that the regions is under whatever is to other side, and the > means that the region is above whatever is on the other side of the sign

So, we see for the graphic that there is a region below a line, this suggests us that there is a < sign implied

The other thing is that there is a convention in math, is the line is graphed using a dashed line, it meas that it is not part of the region, if the line is graphed using a solid line (a continued line) then the line is inside the region, hence there is a = sign implied.

So the answer is y<= 3x-1
