we know that

In an Arithmetic Sequence the difference between one term and the next is a constant

an=a1+d*(n-1)

where

a1 is the first term

d is the common difference between terms

n is the number of months (in this problem)

case a) Mandy

a1=16 books

d=2

an=16+2*(n-1) ------> equation 1

in this equation the first month is April

case b) Bill

a1=4 books

d=4

an=4+4*(n-1) -------> equation 2

In this equation the first month is May

With the equation 1 and the equation 2

calculate the attached table

therefore

the answer is

December

What is the situation in May?

Bill has read 4 books (from the table) and Mandy has read 16 +2 books, which is 18 in total

In May, Mandy read a lot more books than Bill.



What is the situation in June?

Bill has read 4 +8=12 books (from the table; I added up May and June books) and Mandy has read 16 +2 +2books, which is 20 in total

In June, Mandy read a lot more books than Bill.

What is the situation in July?

Bill has read 12+12=24 books (from the table; I added up May and June and July books) and Mandy has read 16 +2 +2+2books, which is 22 in total

 So at the end of June, Bill will have read more books than Mandy!
So he probably doesn't need to read the last two books.

And the answer is: July.

What is the correct simplified version of the expression 32x + 8 - 34x?
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

  -2x +8

Step-by-step explanation:

The terms involving x are "like" terms, so their coefficients are added when the terms are combined.

  = 32x -34x +8

  = (32 -34)x +8 . . . . . x is factored out according to the distributive property

  = -2x +8
