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

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

Vikki [24]

Answer:

a. 76 b. 52

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of its four sides.

Now all rectangles have a width and a length.

To find the perimeter it is 2 width + 2 length or 2W +2L.

So if the Perimeter P = 344 and Width W = 76 and P = 2W + 2L

Then...

2(76) + 2L = 344 multiply 2 and 76

2L + 152 = 344 subtract 152 from both sides

2L = 192 divide both sides by 2

L = 96

The length is 96.

The equation of an area of a rectangle is A or  area = width x length or W x L

So the equation is A = W x L

If the area is 4732 and the length is 91 then

91W = 4732 divide both sides by 91

W = 52

The width is 52.

Hope that helps, good luck with your homework!

A business organization needs to make up a 7 member fund-raising committee. The organization has 6 accounting majors and 7 finan
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer: 658 ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of ways the number "r" items can be chosen from the available number "n", the combination formula for selection is used. This formula is denoted as:

nCr = n! / (n-r)! × r!

Where n! = n×(n-1)×(n-2) ... ×3×2×1.

If we have 6 accounting majors and 7 finance majors and we are to choose a 7-member committee from these with at least 4 accounting majors on the committee, then the possibilities we have include:

[4 accounting majors and 3 finance majors] Or [5 accounting majors and 2 finance majors] or [ 6 accounting majors and 1 finance major].

Mathematically, this becomes:

[6C4 × 7C3] + [6C5 × 7C2] + [6C6×7C1]

525 + 126 + 7 = 658 ways.

Note: it is 6C4 because we are choosing 4 accounting majors from possible 6. This applies to other selection possibilities.
