To solve problem 1 what you need to do is figure out how many miles the girls have walked so far and then subtract that from the total distance they must complete.
3/4-(3/10+1/4)
Step 1:Change the denominators so that way they are all the same
3/4=15/20
3/10=6/20 15/20-(6/20+5/20)
1/4=5/20
Step 2: Begin solving the problem
6/20+5/20=11/20
15/20-11/20=4/20
Step 3: Simplify your answer
4/20=1/5
Step 4 (is optional): Write your answer in a complete statement
The three girls walk 1/5mile together to school
Answer: A
I hope this is correct and if not I apologize for giving false information.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The student currently has $50 and plans to save $15 every month.
Let x represent the number of months that the student will save enough money to buy the microscope.
Let y represent the amount that the student saves after x months.
The function that represents the amount y (in dollars) of money that the student saves after x months will be
y = 50 + 15x
The 50 remains constant because she has already saved it
The slope is m=5/4 and the y-intercept is b= -10
I = PRT/100
I = Simple Interest
P = Principal
R = Interest Rate per period
T = Time ( no. of periods )
Interest = (2500×9.5×3)/100 = 712.50
Answer : $2500 - $712.50 = $1787.50
