Answer:

a) After 10 weeks Jim and Rhonda will have the same amount.

b) They both would have $350 in their account after 10 weeks.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Amount Jim has = $310

Amount Jim adds per week = $4

Let the number of weeks be 'x'.

So we can say that;

Total amount Jim will have after 'x' week will be equal to amount Jim has plus amount Jim adds per week multiplied by number of weeks.

framing in equation form we get;

Total amount Jim will have after 'x' week = 310+4x

Also Given:

Amount Rhonda has = $260

Amount Rhonda adds per week = $9

So we can say that;

Total amount Rhonda will have after 'x' week will be equal to amount Rhonda has plus amount Rhonda adds per week multiplied by number of weeks.

framing in equation form we get;

Total amount Rhonda will have after 'x' week = 260+9x

a) We need to find the number of weeks in which the both will have same amount;

Now to find number of weeks in which the both bill have same amount;

we have to make both the equation equal and solve the same we get;

310+4x =260+9x

Combining the like terms we get;

9x-4x=310-260\\\\5x=50

Now using Division property of equality we will divide both side by 5 we get;

\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{50}{5}\\ \\x =10

Hence After 10 weeks Jim and Rhonda will have the same amount.

b) We have to find amount they would have after 10 weeks.

To find the same we will substitute value of 10 in each equation we get;

Total amount Jim will have after '10' weeks = 310+4x = 310+4\times10 =310 +40 =\$350

Total amount Rhonda will have after '10' weeks = 260+9x = 260+9\times 10 =260+90 =\$350

Hence They both would have $350 in their account after 10 weeks.

Hey I need a step by step of this!!! Or can you just explain to me how to figure it out step by step!! either is fine
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

I believe the answer may be x= 24.5 I'm not certain though

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles inside the triangle must all add up to 180 so we can subtract 80 from 180 to get 98. Now I'm assuming the two undefined angles are equal because of the two angle bisectors that create the second triangle. If I'm correct in assuming that them we can divided 98 by 2 to get 49 which would be the measurement of both bottom angles. Since there's a line bisecting both of them we would then cut that number in half to get 24.5. I hope this helped, I'm not fully certain of this answer though.

If a 45º-45º-90º triangle has a hypotenuse of length 9, find the leg length.
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x²+x²=9²

2x²=81

x²=81/2=(81×2)/4

x=9√2/2≈4.5√2≈6.36

9.

x²+x²=11²

2x²=11²

x²=11²/2

x=11/√2=11√2/2≈7.78
