Answer:
a) 7 weeks b) George's
Step-by-step explanation:
Sally's score can be modeled by 10x+850.
George's score can be modeled by 50x+570.
We can set them equal to each other to see when they intersect.
10x+850=50x+570
40x=280
x=7
If George overtakes her in the 7th week, of course he'll have the higher score in 12 weeks.
Sent a picture of the solution to the problem (s). Proportions are a quick set up to find a part of two things being compared. You will use this method a lot in math and science.
First u put the numbers in order.....very important to do this
3 , 5 , 23, 27, 35, 37, 45, 48, 49
the median is the middle number. So the median is 35.
If you look through the chart, you'll see that in each column,
the amount of money donated is 1/5 the number of lunch
specials sold.
The equation is:
Donation amount = (1/5) · (lunch specials sold) .
The constant of proportionality in money per lunch special sold
is $1/5 or 20 cents.
