C. "David's equation is correct, because their spending will be multiplied by the number of months and then subtracted from their savings"
they are technically saying "Look we have 12,350 to use. How long (y) will the savings (12,350) last after using 240 each month (x)
so the amount they use *PER* month gets subtracted from the savings because they are using that money to pay with
Hope this helps :)

Answer:
B. -2 1/2 +3 1/4 = 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
the starting point is -2 1/2, they added 3 1/4, and the ending point is 3/4.
Answer:
Morning's average rate = 50 mph, and Afternoon's average rate = 25 mph.
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose he drove 150 miles for X hours, then his average rate in the morning was (150/X) mph.
Given that he spent 5 hours in driving.
And he drove 50 miles for (5-X) hours, then his average rate in the afternoon was 50/(5-X) mph.
Given that his average rate in the morning was twice his average rate in the afternoon.
(150/x) = 2 * 50/(5-x)
150/x = 100/(5-x)
Cross multiplying terms, we get:-
150*(5-x) = 100*x
750 - 150x = 100x
750 = 100x + 150x
750 = 250x
x = 750/250 = 3.
It means he spent 3 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the afternoon.
So morning's average rate = 150/3 = 50 mph.
and afternoon's average rate = 50/(5-3) = 25 mph.
