March, April, and May correspond to 3,4, and 5th months.  Each month the amount of money he saves increases by $40, so this is a constant rate of change, or constant velocity, which means that this is a linear equation.  Let y=the amount of money he has and x=the month number and model it with the line of form y=mx+b, where m=slope, or rate, and b=y-intercept...

y=40x+b, we know that he has $40 on the third month (February) so:

40=40(3)+b

40=120+b

-80=b so the equation is:

y=40x-80  (note that the domain is x=[3, +oo) only for the function to have meaining)

Now you want to know when he has $320...

320=40x-80  

400=40x

10=x

So he will have $320 on the 10th month, which is October.

Please help me i have no clue what the answer is :?
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

1. Yes

2. They could change the 60° angle into a different one.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Two triangles are the same if they share two side lengths with the same angle between them.

2. Since the triangles are equal if they share two side lengths with the same angle between them, if they changed the angle between 3 and 5, it'd no longer be the same triangle.
