Answer:

He was given $60 for his birthday.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is y = 75x + 60

y represents the amount of money and x represents the number of deposits

The equation y=mx+b

where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

The coefficient of x is the slope

the number without any variable is the y intercept

y = 75x + 60

In the given equation , 60 is the y intercept

60 is the initial money deposited

He was given $60 for his birthday.

Find two consecutive whole numbers such that 4/7 of the larger exceeds 1/2 of the smaller by 5
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

The consecutive numbers are 62 and 63

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the larger number be represented by x and the smaller number by y,

Provided they are consecutive numbers;

x = y + 1 --- Equation 1

From the question; we have that

\frac{4x}{7} = \frac{y}{2} + 5 --- Equation 2

Required

Find x and y

Multiply both sides of equation 2 by 14

14 * \frac{4x}{7} = 14 * \frac{y}{2} + 14 * 5

2 * 4x = 7 * y + 70

8x = 7y + 70 ---- Equation 3

Substitute y + 1 for x in equation 2

8(y + 1) = 7y + 70

Open bracket

8y + 8 = 7y + 70

Collect like terms

8y - 7y = 70 - 8

y = 62

x = y + 1

So,

x = 62 + 1

x = 63

Hence, the consecutive numbers are 62 and 63
