I'm really bad at math so can you help me with that
To compare these two jobs, you need to have a common point. In
this problem, you have to solve for the annual salary of the first job and
compare it with the annual salary of the second job which is already given.
$12 per hour x 40 hours per week x 48 weeks in a year =
$23,040
First job’s annual salary is $23,040
Second job’s annual salary is $22,000
Therefore, the job which pays $12 an hour pays more.
P = 5 .............................................
this is how=
first you expand the second equation
<span>25 + 4p = -18 + -12 + 6p + 9p
</span>
then you add the like terms in the second equation:
25 + 4p = -30 + 15p
then this is how=
25+30 = 15p -4p
55=11p
p= 5
To do part B, use the equation that you wrote for part A. We need to figure out what month number March of 2020 will be; we started in January 2015 at month 1; month 2 was Feb. 2015; month 3 was Mar. 2015; etc. to month 12 at Dec. 2015. Then month 13 will be Jan. 2016; month 13+12=25 will be Jan. 2017; month 25+12=37 will be Jan. 2018; month 37+12=49 will be Jan. 2019; month 49+12=61 will be Jan. 2020; month 62 will be Feb. 2020; and month 63 will be March 2020.
63 is the number you will substitute for x in the equation you've already written for part A.
