Answer:
<em>The input when the output is 17 is x=6.</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Functions</u>
Assume the input is called x and the output is the function f(x). Two times the input is 2x. 5 more than that is 2x+5.
Knowing the output of the function is 5 more than 2 times the input, we can write the function as:
f(x)=2x+5
Now find the input x when the output is 17:
17=2x+5
Swap sides of the equation:
2x+5=17
Subtract 5:
2x=17-5=12
Divide by 2:
x=12/6=6
The input when the output is 17 is x=6.

ok sorry let me try to figure this one out because i dont kow how to do a tree diagram on here
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: sally initially has $240, Tom initially has $180.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let initial amount of money sally has = x
Then, initial amount tom has = 75% * x = 0.75x
Now to present,
Amount sally has = x -120
Amount tom has = [x - 120] + [50% * (x-120)]
= x - 120 + 0.5x - 180
= 1.5x - 180
Since Tom didn't spend, it means this is the same amount tom has then we equate both equations.
0.75x = 1.5x - 180
180 = 0.75x
x = 240
Therefore, initial money of sally of sally = $240
Initial money of tom = 240 * 0.75 = $180.
