All you have to do is set the equation

We call Rick r and Jim j

r+j=49500

r= 3j-500 because rick is 500 when Jim is 3 times his amount.

So all you have to do left is solve it.

Subtitles

3j-500+j=49500

4j=50000
J= 12500 dollars

Subtitles

R= 3(12500)-500= 37000 dollars

In conclusion rick salary is 37000 and Jim is 12500

Hope this helps and if it does please give a brainliest answer :)

Since he lost 5 every month, it should be that the slope is -5, not 5, he is not gaining 5 every month


yint is 100 and slope is -5 would be correct
b=-5m+100
b=number of blocks he has after m months

This makes no sense to me keep getting the wrong answers when i try to figure it out

To solve this problem, you'd want to start by finding the mean of the given numbers. To find the mean, add all the numbers together and divide by how many there are.

Next, you'll see that the question says one of the rents changes from $1130 to $930. So find the mean of all the numbers again, except include $930 in your calculation instead of $1130.

I got $990 as the mean for the given numbers, and $970 as the mean after replacing the $1130 with $930. Subtracting the two means gives you $20. So the mean decreased by $20.

Now for the median, all you need to do is find the median of the given numbers and compare them with the median of the new data. Because there are ten terms, you have to add the middle two numbers and divide by two. $990 + $1020 = 2010. 2010÷2 = $1005 as the first median.

The new rent is 930, so you have to reorder the data so it goes from least to greatest again. 745, 915, 925, 930, 965, 990, 1020, 1040, 1050, 1120. After finding the median again you get 977.5. Subtracting the two medians gives you $27.5 as how much the median decreased. Hope this helps!

<h2>Answer:</h2><h3>The answer should be, "The Least Frequency is at 13 Years."</h3><h3>-</h3><h3>The range should be 4, so that can't be it, and from the graph the frequency does not increase, it just goes down then back up.  Just based off the graph, it should be the 2nd choice :)</h3>
