For an instance, i stands for the money that you have, and b stands for the money that brother has.
An equation system based on the problem would be
i + b = 42 (equation 1)
i = 3b (equation 2)

Use substitution method to solve the problem
substitute 3b into i in the equation 1
i + b = 42
3b + b = 42
4b = 42
b = 42/4
b = 10.5

substitute the value of b into the equation 1
i = 3b
i = 3(10.5)
i = 31.5

You have $31.5 and your brother has $10.5

During the first four months of the year, Jack earned $1270, $1150, $870 and $1450 If Jack must have an average salary of at lea
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

1010

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a whole class of questions that rely on the method to this one.

First add up what you know

1270 + 1150 + 870 + 1450 = 4740

Now add on the 5th month (which you don't know. Call it x)

4740 + x

Divide by 5

(4740 + x)/5 = 1150 and that is your equation    

Solution

Multiply both sides by 5

5*(4740 + x) / 5 = 1150 * 5

4740 + x = 5750

Subtract 4740 from both sides

4740 - 4740 + x = 5750 - 4740

x = 1010

Which seems kind of low, but that's what the numbers come to.

How to solve shaded regions on a trapezoid is simple.
First find the area of the whole trapezoid, or W but it already gives us that as 21.66 in squared.
Next, find the area of the non shaded region, or NS.
3.8*4.6=17.48 in
Lastly, subtract the NS from the W.
21.66 -17.48 = 
NS= 17.48 in squared.
W= 21.66 in squared.
S= 4.18 in squared.
 
The answer is B- 4.18 in Squared
