Answer:

You had $118 the beginning of the month.

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Method 1:</em>

Work the question backwards

You end up with $120, which resulted from depositing (or adding) $24,

So subtract that amount to see how much there was before the deposit

So before the deposit, you had $120 - $24, which is $96.


The $96 resulted from withdrawing (or subtracting) $22.

So add that amount to see how much there was before the withdrawal.

So before the withdrawal, you had $96 + $22, which was $118


<em>Method 2:</em>

Look at the difference between the withdrawal and deposit.  Treat a withdrawal as a negative number since you are subtracting, or reducing the amount in the account.  Treat any deposit as a positive number since you are adding to the amount in the account.  

You withdrew 22, and deposited 24.  Reword this as

You subracted 22 and added 24.    Rewrite this as

-22 + 24    which simpifies to 2

So you added $2 overall during the month.  You have $120, so

$120 - $2 is $118

From a point on a river, two boats are driven in opposite directions, one at 7 miles per hour and the other at 11 miles per hour
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

Both boats will be 54 miles apart after 3 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that from a point on a river, two boats are driven in opposite directions, one at 7 miles per hour and the other at 11 miles per hour, to determine how many hours they will be 54 miles apart, the following calculation must be performed :

54 / (11 + 7) = X

54/18 = X

3 = X

Therefore, both boats will be 54 miles apart after 3 hours.
