M represents the month because the value is decreasing every month.
Hope this helps :)
I'm not sure but I think it's 40 water stations...

Answer: Choice D. 4^2+5^2 = x^2</h3>
See note at the bottom
========================================================
The entire building is 20 feet. Fifteen feet of that is from the ground to the first landing of the stairs or fire escape. So 20-15 = 5 feet represents the height of the second set of stairs (leading to the roof of the building)
The base of the triangle is 4 feet as shown in the diagram. The height is 5 feet as found in the prior paragraph. Use the pythagorean theorem to say
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
4^2 + 5^2 = x^2
Note: If you meant to write 4^2+5^2 = x^2 for choice D, then that would be the answer. Otherwise, there is a typo somewhere.
Ok, so she has 14 tickets and each ride cost 2 so that can be modeled with the following expression: x= 14-2y since she initially bought 14 tickets and 2 times the number of tickets she spends. To find the equivalent expression you could basically switch up the formula like so: 7*2-2y=x because you just need an equivalent expression, and you don't need to have such a different formula or anything like that. Hope I helped!
