You should start with an equation.

The 'x' represents the week.
so now, we have to subtract 125 from the total amount which is 245.

now we have

to find 'x', we must divide 15 on each side

we are now left with

that means Sierra will have 8 weeks until she has enough money to buy the bike
If you would like to order the following values in descending order, you can do this using the following steps:
- 3/4 = - 0.75
1/8 = 0.125
- 0.735
7/8 = 0.875
1/80 = 0.0125
0.056
The result is: 7/8, 1/8, 0.056, 1/80, - 0.735, -0.75.
Answer:
$1,131.20 is the amount earned
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Key skills needed: Simple Interest Formula, Operations ( +, - , x , / )</u>
1) To understand this problem, you need to know the simple interest formula.
A = P(1+rt)
A is the amount
P is the principal
R is the interest rate as a decimal
T is the time in years
2) The 1st thing we need to do is convert the interest rate into a decimal. We have 14%. To convert into decimal form, we divide it by a 100, or move the decimal 2 places to the left. This is 0.14 --> So r=0.14
3) Next we use the formula:
A = 1,010(1+ 0.14(8))
- We first do 0.14(8) which is 1.12 and then add it to the 1 value, so you will get --> A = 1,010(2.12)
- Multiply and you will get A = $2,141.20
- To find the interest earned, you subtract this by the original amount, so $2,141.20 - $1,010 which would be $1,131.20
This means $1,131.20 is your answer.

<u><em>Answer: x=6 *The answer should be the positive sign.*</em></u>
Step-by-step explanation:
division property of equality is dividing both sides of an equation by the same non-zero number does not change the equation.
divide by -8 both sides of an equation.
-8x/-8=-48/-8
48/8=6
48/6=8
8*6=48
x=6
Hope this helps!
Thanks!
Have a great day!
