Let
x----------> number of weeks
y----------> saved money

we now that

<span>Michael begins with $20 and saves $5 per week
so
y=20+5x------> equation 1

and
</span><span>Lindsey begins with no money, but saves $10 per week
</span><span>y=10x-------> equation 2

</span><span>the number of weeks it will take for Lindsey and Michael to save the same amount of money is when equation 1 is equals to equation 2
</span>
therefore
20+5x=10x------> 10x-5x=20------> 5x=20-----> x=20/5-----> x=4 weeks

the answer is 
4 weeks

B) If you were to roll the dice 100 times, how often would you expect to get doubles?
Novosadov [1.4K]

If you're rolling a single cube, then ...

-- There are 6 possible out comes.

-- One of them (5) is a multiple of 5 .

-- The probability of rolling it is (1/6) = 16-2/3 % .

If everything is acting perfectly random, then ion 100 rolls,

you'd expect to succeed 16 or 17 times.

If you're rolling a pair of cubes, then ...

-- There are (6 x 6) = 36 possible outcomes.

-- There are seven ways to get a multiple of 5.

(1+4),  (4+1),  (2+3),  (3+2),  (4+6),  (6+4),  (5+5)

-- The probability of rolling one of those is

                                                            (7/36) = 19-4/9 % .

If everything is acting perfectly random, then in 100 rolls,

you'd expect to succeed 19 or 20 times.
