Ok, so this one requires you to set up an equation that makes sense....(mr. Smith + mr. Harry)/2= 489...that is the average money from the problem....ok so let’s add some variables now and make it look like math. 2x is mr smith from the first sentence. X is mr. Harry. This yields

(2x+x)/2=489.....use inverse operations to yield
2x+x=978

Combine like terms to get

3x=978

Then divide by 3
To give you x=326

What does x tell you?
X= harry = 326
2x = Smith = 652

To check add them together and divide by 2 to get the average....489

There was $135 in Roland's bank account after the two-month period.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Roland out $180 in his account at the beginning of July. This reduced by 25% over the next two months.

We need to determine how much 25% of $180 is. To do so we convert 25% into a fraction and multiply with 180.

25% of $180 =\frac{25}{100}  (180)= 45.

So an amount of $45 reduced over two months.

Step 2:

To calculate the money Roland has in his account after two months, we subtract the amount reduced from the amount of money in his account at the beginning of July.

The amount of money in his bank account after the two-month period 180-45= 135.

So there was $135 in Roland's bank account after the two-month period.

When solving a system of inequalities, which of the following methods are used? A.guess and check
yarga [219]

Answer:

Option B - graphing is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve a system of inequalities we need graphing. Inequality tells us about the relative size of two values. When we graph the x and y co-ordinates, the solution is not the drawn line, but the area of the coordinate plane that satisfies the inequality. In inequalities, multiple solutions can be possible.

Plug and chug method does not a complete solution, it only tells where a point belongs. Guess and check does not apply here.
