Answer:

Part A: 7n + 30= -5 and 8n + 40= 16

Part B: 7(8) + 30= 86 and 8(8) + 40= 104

Part C: Company A saves you 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Company A: 7n + 30

Company B: 8n + 40

7n + 30= -5       8n + 40= 16

7(8) +30= 86     8(8) +40= 104

7(2) + 30= 44    8(2) + 40= 56

56 - 44= 12

Drake wants to save $750 so that he can take a class on computer analysis for cars. The class is being held on various dates ove
STatiana [176]
C. Both options A and B will allow him to meet his goal.



Looking at Drake's situation after 4 weeks, he only has $470 saved. By his original plan, he should have had $500 saved. So he's $30 short of his goal and has 2 weeks until his originally planned class. If he goes with option A and takes the later class, he will save an additional $125 which is more than enough to make up the $30 short fall. So option A will work for him to save enough money for his class. With option B, he will save $140 for the last 2 weeks of his plan giving him a savings of $280 for the last 2 weeks. Adding the $470 he's already saved will give him a total savings of $470 + $280 = $750 which is enough for him to attend his class. So option B will also allow Drake to attend his desired class. Both options A and B allow him to meet his goal. Hence, the answer is "c".

A section of a boardwalk is made using 15boards. Each board is 9/1/4 inches wide. The total width of the section is 144 inches.
sleet_krkn [62]
If there are 15 boards there are 14 gaps in-between. 
But first, 15 boards each 9 and 1/4th inches so you get  a total of 138 inches and 3/4th
If you subtract that from 144 you get 5 inches and 1/4th. The remaining amount is the total of all of the distance from the spacing.
Then you divide that by 14 (number of gaps/spacing in-between.)
So you get .375 inches. (3/8)
So width of the spacing between each board is 3/8ths of a inch
