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.

Answer:0.4375

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the problem, we start by labeling 1/2 of 7/8 like this:

N1/D1 of N2/D2

Then we use this fraction of a fraction formula to solve the problem:

(N1 x N2) / (D1 x D2)

When we enter 1/2 of 7/8 into the formula, we get:

(1 x 7) / (2 x 8) = 7/16

Therefore, the answer to 1/2 of 7/8 in its lowest form is:

1/2 of 7/8 = 7/16
