After 14 weeks, both Megan and Conner will have saved the same amount.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount Megan have = $50

Amount saved each week = $5.50

Amount Conner have = $18.50

Amount saved each week = $7.75

Let,

x be the number of weeks.

According to given statement;

M(x) = 50+5.50x    Eqn 1

C(x) = 18.50+7.75x   Eqn 2

For amount to be same;

Eqn 1 = Eqn 2

50+5.50x=18.50+7.75x\\50-18.50=7.75x-5.50x\\31.50=2.25x\\2.25x=31.50\\

Dividing both sides by 2.25

\frac{2.25x}{2.25}=\frac{31.50}{2.25}\\x=14

After 14 weeks, both Megan and Conner will have saved the same amount.

A 10-foot ladder is leaning against a wall. The base of the ladder is 2 feet from the base of the building. How far up the build
Svetlanka [38]
We can see on this graph that the triangle has legs of x and 6 with a hypotenuse of 10 and we can use Pythagoreans theorem to find the unknown side.
Pythagoreans theorem: a^2+b^2=c^2, where a and b are the legs of the triangle and c, is the hypotenuse 

x^2+6^2=10^2 Plugin a=x, b=6, and c=10. Now let us solve for x 

x^2+36=100 Square each individual term 

x^2+=100+36 Subtract 36 from both sides 

x^2=64 Combine like terms 

sqrt(2)=sqrt(64) Take the square root of both sides 

x = 8 Simplify the square root 

So our answer is x = 8 
The ladder touches the 8 feet mark on the wall.

4-2x=11 how do I solve
Bingel [31]

Hey there!☺

Answer:\boxed{x=\frac{-7}{2}}

Explanation:

4-2x=11

In our first step, we will simplify both sides of the equation:

4+-2x=11\\-2x+4=11

Now subtract 4 from both sides:

-2x+4-4=11-4\\-2x=7

In our last step, we will divide both sides by -2:

\frac{-2x}{2}=\frac{7}{-2}\\  x=\frac{-7}{2}

x=-7/2 is your answer.

Hope this helps!☺

tabia stores her hair bands in a cube shaped container. the cube has a volume of 64 cubic inches. What is the lenght of the edge
xeze [42]

Answer:

The length of the edge of the cube = 4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets describe the cube

- It has 6 faces all of them are squares

- It has 8 vertices

- It has 12 equal edges

∵ The volume of any formal solid = area of the base × height

∵ The base of the cube is a square

∴ Area base = L × L = L² ⇒ L is the length of the edge of it

∵ All edges are equal in length

∴ Its height = L

∴ The volume of the cube = L² × L = L³

* Now we have the volume and we want to find the

 length of the edges

∵ Its volume = 64 inches³

∴ 64 = L³

* Take cube root to the both sides

∴ ∛64 = ∛(L³)

∴ L = 4 inches

* The length of the edge of the cube = 4 inches
