Jake and Seth put some money into their money boxes every week. The amount of money (y), in dollars, in their money boxes after

a certain amount of time (x), in weeks, is shown by the equations below:
Jake: y = 5x + 85
Seth: y = 20x + 40

After how many weeks will Jake and Seth have the same amount of money in their money boxes and what will that amount be?

3 weeks, $100
3 weeks, $285
6 weeks, $150
100 weeks, $3

1)  How many weeks will Jake and Seth be equal? set the equations equal to each other and solve for x:

5x + 85 = 20x + 40

45 = 15x

<u><em>x = 3 weeks</em></u>

2)  How much money will that be? plug x = 3 back into the equation to solve for y:

Jake:  5(3) + 85 = $100
Seth:  20(3) + 40 = $100

<u><em>answer is $100</em></u>

After how many weeks will jake and seth have the same amount of money
jake=y=5x+85
seth=y=20x+40
so when seth=jake or y=y or 5x+85=20x+40 then they have same ammount of money so solve for when they are equal
5x+85=20x+40
subtract 40 from both sides
5x+45=20x
subtract 5x from both sides
45=15x
divide boht isdes yb 15
3=x

after 3 weeks

then subsitute 3 into the equation
20x+40=y
20(3)+40=y
60+40=y
100=y

the answer is
3 weeks, $100

Identify an equation in point-slope form for the line perpendicular to y =3/4x -4 that passes through (-1, 7).
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

y - 7 = -4/3(x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>

  • y =3/4x -4
  • (-1, 7)

<u>Convert to point slope form</u>

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

m: represents what the slope is

y - 7 = -4/3(x + 1)

<u>Distribute -4/3</u>

-4/3 * x = -4/3x

-4/3 * 1 = -4/3

y - 7 = -4/3x - 4/3

<u>Add seven in both sides</u>

21/3 -4/3 = 17/3

y = -4/3x + 17/2

<u>Answer</u>

linear equation: y = -4/3x + 17/2

point-slope form: y - 7 = -4/3(x + 1)

Sandy is upgrading her Internet service. Fast Internet charges $45 for installation and $49.45 per month.
butalik [34]

Answer:

x = 6 months.

The equation is given by $45 + ($49.45 × x) = ($56.95 × x).

Step-by-step explanation:

i) Let x be the number of months of Internet Service purchased till the Fast

  Internet charges and Quick Internet charges become the same.

ii) Charges for Fast Internet for x months is given by $45 + ($49.45 × x)

iii) Charges for Quick Internet for x months is given by ($56.95 × x)

iv) According to the first statement we will now equate the equations in ii)  

   and iii) and solve for x.

   Therefore, $45 + ($49.45 × x) = ($56.95 × x)

                      45 + 49.45 x  =  56.95 x

  Therefore  (56.95 - 49.45) x = 45

                    7.50 × x  =  45

  Therefore x = 45 ÷  7.5 = 6

Segment is also use to analyze and to solve many questions.

Lines are used to join one segment or the other.

Point and ray are also used but are majorly used in optics

Asking that Which of the following do not have precise definitions in geometry.

The best answer are point and line.

Because there is no specific definition for the two variables.
