Answer:

The first envelope contained $300 and the second envelope contained $200.

Step-by-step explanation:

3/5 of $300 is $180, so you subtract that from $300 to get a sum of $120.

Then you subtract $80 from $200 to get a sum of $120.

Therefore:

The first envelope contained $300 and the second contained $200.

Have a good day! :)

Compute 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + ... +48 +49 + 50.​
ad-work [718]

Answer:

1275

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an arithmetic series. The formula for this is Sₙ = (n/2)(a₁ +aₙ)d. a₁ is the first term, so here it is 1, and aₙ is the nth term, or the last term, which is 50 here, but we don't know n.

Now we have to use the equation for an arithmetic sequence to solve for n. A sequence would just be if there was not a last number and it went on forever. that equation looks like aₙ = a₁ + (n - 1)d. Now the only new variable is d, which is the common difference. You can find that by subtracting one term from the term before it, like 2-1 = 1, so d is 1.

We can now solve for n by plugging our numbers into the second equation, so 50 = 1 + (n - 1)1, we can distribute the 1 and to (n-1) and get 50 = 1 + n - 1. Now the ones will cancel and we are left with n = 50

Finally we can plug everything into our original equation and find Sₙ = (50/2)(1+50), which simplifies to Sₙ = 25(51), and Sₙ = 1275.

A campus apartment has two bedrooms and two attached bathrooms and rents for $1,025 per month plus an average of $60 per month f
Zanzabum

I can save $2,128 in my academic year and my roommate can save $392 in their academic year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total housing amount= rent + electricity= $1,025 + $60= $1,085 per month

My rent is 40% of $1,085 which equals $434 a month while my roommate’s rent would be 60% of $1,085 which equals $651 a month.

The scholarship gives me $700 a month for housing out of which I spend $434 and my roommate spends $651.

I save; $700 - $434 = $266 a month

My roommate saves; $700 - $651 = $49 a month.

An academic year lasts for 8 months so my savings= $266 x 8 = $2,128

My roommate’s savings= $49 x 8 = $392
