Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming that for each option, you play the same number of games,x
Let y represent the cost of playing x games using option A
Option A is to buy a membership card and pay $2 every time you go to the gym. The membership card costs $20. It means that
y = 20 + 2x
Let z represent the cost of playing x games using option B
Option B is to pay $4 each time you go. It means that
z = 4x
To determine how many games will be played before cost of option A equal to the cost of option B, we would equate y to z. It becomes
20 + 2x = 4x
4x - 2x = 20
2x = 20
x = 20/2 = 10
It will take 10 games for both to be the same
Answer:
$8
Step-by-step explanation:
After the shoe purchase, her balance was $50 -45 = $5.
After depositing her babysitting earnings, her balance was $5+25 = $30.
After buying pizza, her balance was $30 -42 = -$12.
<em>Assuming no overdraft charge</em>, her balance after depositing her earnings was ...
-$12 +20 = $8
Sally's balance on Sunday was $8.
Answer:
x=10
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply 5 on both sides to cancel out the 5 and your left with x=10
For this question, it would be most effective to use an algebraic expression to more easily show what the question is asking. If we use the variable "k" to show the distance in km that he cycled on Sunday, we know that the amount he cycled on Saturday equals k + 12, and the amount that he cycled on the weekend should be the amount of Saturday plus the amount of Sunday. If we write this as an equation we say:
k + k + 12 = 38
=> 2k + 12 = 38
Now we can just rearrange and solve for k:
=> 2k = 26
=> k = 26/2 = 13
Therefore Patrick cycled 13km on Sunday
To solve the answer, we just add 12km to the value for Sunday like so:
12 + 13 = the amount he cycled on Sunday
Hope this helped, remember to please try and understand the maths as well as the answer :))
