The <em>correct answers</em> are:
It would take 5 months and she would save $250.
Explanation:
Let m be the number of months.
For the first way of saving, $200 up front and $10 each month, the expression would be
200+10m.
For the second way of saving, $100 up front and $30 each month, the expression would be
100+30m.
Setting them equal gives us the equation
200+10m = 100+30m
Subtract 10m from each side:
200+10m-10m = 100+30m-10m
200 = 100+20m
Subtract 100 from each side:
200-100 = 100+20m-100
100 = 20m
Divide both sides by 20:
100/20 = 20m/20
5 = m
It would take 5 months.
$200 up front and $10 each month for 5 months:
200+10m
200+10(5)
200+50
250
She would save $250.
Given:
The figure of a triangle.
To find:
The missing length.
Solution:
Let x be the missing length.
Basic proportionality theorem(BPT): According to this theorem, if a line is parallel to the one side of a triangle then that the line intersects the other two sides of the triangle in the same ratio.
Using Basic proportionality theorem, we get
Adding x on both sides, we get
The missing length is 3 Therefore, the correct option is D.
Wouldnt it be 7 bc 7*6 is 42
$5.25 divided by 25 = .21 cents each
