Answer:
1 month
Step-by-step explanation:
249 is the amount she spends for buying the kitten, (299-50=249) which she only has to pay once.
20 is the amount she has to spend every month, the rate of change.
The problem can be modeled with the general equation:
y = 20x + 249
In this equation, x the the time in months and y is the amount of money spent.
Substitute 250 for y.
y = 20x + 249
250 = 20x + 249 <= isolate x to get the number of months
1 = 20x
x = 1/20
Carol will only spent money every month, not for 1/20 of a month.
It will only take Carol 1 month to spent $250.
Check answer:
Substitute x for 1
y = 20x + 249
y = 20(1) + 249
y = 269
269 is more than 250 already.
Answer:
x + y ≤ 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Inequality:
Not more than 12 means less than or equal to 12
x + y ≤ 12
Answer:
y=1/2x
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
$26.87
Step-by-step explanation:
if the shirt was 35% off, then you paid 65% of the cost
that value can be found by:
39 x .65 = 25.35 (this is the amount paid for the shirt)
sales tax of 6% on 25.35 is:
.06 x 25.35 which equals 1.52
25.35 + 1.52 = 26.87
