Let's find the rates at which Melinda and Marcus are saving money and compare them.
Based on the table, we can see that Melinda originally had $75. Then she got $135 in 5 weeks. So the rate of saving money is (135–75)/5 = $12 per week.
This rate is unchanged for the next weeks. As we can see, she got $195 in the next 5 weeks. So she saved $60 more those 5 weeks, or the rate is $60/5 = $12 per week again.
So Melinda saved $12 per week.
As for Marcus, the equation tells us that the rate of saving money is $14 which is the coefficient in front of x.
Hence, t<span>he rate at which Melinda is adding to her savings each week is 2$
less than the rate at which Marcus is adding to his savings each week.</span>

Answer:
$6000
Step-by-step explanation:
accumulated amount = A = PI
A = $6900
Let P = x
6900 - I = x
I = (x)(0.05)(3yrs) = 0.15x
6900 - 0.15x = x
Add
6900 = 1.15x
Divide, solve for x
x = 6000
Answer:
the club looses 12.50$
Step-by-step explanation:
125 tickets * 1.50$ per ticket
