Answer:

They both started with 500 dollars and saved for 6 weeks.

Explanation:

We can observe that the difference in the amount of money saved per week is 25 dollars. (you save 75 dollars and your friend saves 50 dollars)

When vacation time comes, you have 950 dollars and your friend has 800. There is a difference of 150 dollars. Therefore <u>we have to divide the difference of amount per week by the total difference to find how many weeks have passed:</u>

150 / 25 = 6

Therefore, when vacation time has arrived, there have been 6 weeks since you and your friend started to save.

  1. Now, 6 weeks saving $75 per week would give you $450 dollars, but if you finish with $950 dollars, you'd have to subtract these amounts to see how much you started with.

950 - 450 = 500.

Therefore, you started with $500 dollars.

  1. On the other hand, your friend saved $50 dollars per week for 6 weeks, so she saved a total of $300. If she finished with 800 dollars then she started with:

800 - 300 = 500.

Therefore, she started with $500 dollars.

Why was mendel's work not accepted at the time answers?
mina [271]

His work was ignored because it was not widely distributed, and he didn't make an effort to promote himself. Actually, the reasons are more complex. He was part of the social and scientific circle of the time. He had opportunities to travel and to attend scientific conferences . When he published his paper in 1865, it was exchanged with the publications of at least  120 other associations and societies and was available in many libraries and scientific institutes. His mathematical ratio of inheritance was probably not understood by many botanists . Subsequent mentions of Mendel's results usually focused on the hybrids that Mendel made , ignoring the mathematics altogether.
