At the bank, Derek made 7 withdrawals, each in the same amount. His brother, John, made 5 withdrawls, each in the same amount.
Let x be the amount of one of Derek's withdrawals
Each of John's withdrawals was $5 more than each withdrawal that Derek made.
x + 5 is t the amount of one of John's withdrawals
Derek made 7 withdrawals
So amount withdraw 7 times = 7x
John made 5 withdrawals
So amount withdraw 5 times = 5(x+5)
Both Derek and John withdrew the same amount of money in the end
(A)7x = 5(x+5)
(B) Solve for x
7x = 5x + 25
Subtract 5x from both sides
2x = 25
Divide by 2
x = 12.5
(C) check your solution
we plug in 12.5 for x in 7x= 5x + 25
7(12.5) = 5(12.5) + 25
87.5 = 62.5+ 25
87.5 = 87.5
(D) Each brother withdrawal 87.5 dollars
Answer: y = 0.4x
In fraction form, this is y = (2/5)x
================================================
Explanation:
For each row, divide the y over x values
- Row One: y/x = 0.8/2 = 0.4
- Row Two: y/x = 4/10 = 0.4
- Row Three: y/x = 6/15 = 0.4
- Row Four: y/x = 10/25 = 0.4
We end up with the same thing each time.
Since y/x = 0.4, this rearranges to y = 0.4x
Alternatively, you can write the equation as y = (2/5)x because 2/5 = 0.4
Answer is 13 yards of ribbon
Step by step
She started out with $25
She had a remainder of $22.14
Subtract
25 - 22.14 = $2.86 she spent on ribbon
Divide $2.86 by .22 per yard = 13 yards
