Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: it would take 20 weeks before the amount in both accounts would be the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of weeks that it will take either Ruben and Shawna to have the same amount of money in their account.

Let y represent the total amount that would be in Shawna's account after x weeks

Let z represent the total amount that would be in Ruben's account after x weeks

Shawna has $750 in the bank. She deposits $37.50 each week. This means that the total amount after x weeks would be

y = 37.5x + 750

Ruben has $850 in the bank. He deposits his paycheck of $102.75 every Monday,and he spends about $70.25 each week.. This means that the total amount after x weeks would be

z = 850 + 102.75x - 70.25x

z = 850 + 32.5x

To determine the number of weeks before the amount in both accounts will becomes the same, we would equate y to z. It becomes

37.5x + 750= 850 + 32.5x

37.5x - 32.5x = 850 - 750

5x = 100

x = 100/5 = 20

Answer:

This example is not a random example due to the fact that it is only questioning the eighth-graders. Random sample means that the sample is chosen simply randomly and everyone has an equal opportunity to be apart of the sampling.
