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.

Amari claims that a rectangle is sometimes a parallelogram but a parallelogram is always a
Maslowich

Answer:

The statement is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallelogram is a figure of four sides, such that opposite sides are parallel

A rectangle is a four-sided figure such that all internal angles are 90°

Here, the statement is:

"A rectangle is sometimes a parallelogram but a parallelogram is always a

rectangle."

Here if we found a parallelogram that is not a rectangle, then that is enough to prove that the statement is false.

The counterexample is a rhombus, which is a parallelogram that has two internal angles smaller than 90° and two internal angles larger than 90°, then this parallelogram is not a rectangle, then the statement is false.

The correct statement would be:

"A parallelogram is sometimes a rectangle, but a rectangle is always a parallelogram"

Similarities: They both are polynomials of degree 2, both of their graphs is a parabola, both have either 2 or 0 real solutions, they are both continuous functions over R 
(DOS= difference of two squares, PST=perfect square trinomial 
Differences: PST has three terms, whereas the difference of squares has 2. PST's factors are both the same, whereas DOS's elements are conjugates of each other. DOS can always be factored into two distinct polynomials with rational coefficients, whereas PST has two same polynomial factors.

MATCH THE number WITH ITS OPPOSITE
ycow [4]

To match the number with the opposite, we are flipping the sign. If the sign is originally a negative, it would become a positive, and vice versa.

Term: 3.2 Match (Opposite): B) - 3.2

Term: -2.3 Match (Opposite): D) 2.3

Term: -1.5 Match (Opposite): C) 1.5

Term: 5.1 Match (Opposite): A) -5.1

Determine the y-intercept of the graph.
Georgia [21]

Answer:

Your y intercept is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

slope is y2-y1 over x2-x1, or 2.

slope intercept formula is y=mx+b, and if you plug values into formula you get 3=2(1)+b

and if you solve that, 2x1=2, 3-2=1.

then you get 1 as your y intercept.

When a figure is translated, reflected, or rotated, what's the same about the original igure and its image? What's different?
Liula [17]

Answer:

The image of a translation, reflection, or rotation is congruent to the original figure, and the image of a dilation is similar to the original figure. Two figures are similar when one can be obtained from the other by a sequence of translations, reflections, rotations, and dilations.
