The number beside the letter . for example 6x, 6 would be the variable
Given that Betty saves $161 per month which is $141 less than Jack per month. find the amount that Jack will save in 2 years.
First, find how much Jack saves. We can do this buy adding 141 to 161 since Betty saves 141 less meaning we can reverse it by adding it.
141 + 161 = 302
Now, that we know how much Jack saves per month.
Then, we have to find out how many months are in 2 years.
We already know that there is 12 months in a year, so for 2 years, we can simply multiply by 2.
12 x 2 = 24
Therefore, there are 24 months in two years.
Lastly, multiply 24 months by the amount that Jack saves to get the amount in total.
24 x 302 = 7,248
Thus, Jack will save approximately $7,248 in 2 years.
Answer:
5/8
Step-by-step explanation:
28x + 4 can be factorised because 28 is a multiple of 4
so it can become
4(7x+1)
35x + 5 can be also factorised because 35 is a multiple of 5
5(7x+1)
we can now rewrite the expression as
6/4(7x+1) * 5(7x+1)/12
we can “eliminate” the two 7x+1 and simplify 6 with 12
so it remains
1/4 * 5/2 = 5/8
