Tavon has a gift card for $165 that loses $4 for each 30-day period it is not used. He has another gift card for $145 that loses

$3.50 for each 30-day period it is not used. Write an equation for the number of 30-day periods until the value of the gift cards will be equal. Let x represent the number of 30-day periods.

Answer:

Equation 1 = Equation 2

165 - 4x = 145 - 3.50x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of 30-day periods.

Tavon has a gift card for $165 that loses $4 for each 30-day period it is not used.

Therefore the equation =

$165 -$4 × x

= 165 - 4x.......... Equation 1

He has another gift card for $145 that loses $3.50 for each 30-day period it is not used.

$145 -$3.50 × x

= 145 - 3.50x........... Equation 2

Hence, an equation for the number of 30-day periods until the value of the gift cards will be equal is obtained by equating Equation 1 and Equation 2 together

So, we have

Equation 1 = Equation 2

165 - 4x = 145 - 3.50x

We simplify further:

165 - 145 = -3.50 + 4.0x

20 = 0.5x

x = 20/0.5

x = 40

Therefore, number of each 30-day periods until the value of the gift cards will be equal is 40

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

8 and 2

Step-by-step explanation:

8 and 2 because y=5x +3 would be 5+3 which is 8 and y= 3x - 1 would be 3 - 1 which equals 2.

Please help me: Ten athletes ran two races of the same length. The scatter plot shows their times. Identify each of these statem
Lemur [1.5K]

The scatter plot has been attached

Answer:

Options C, D & E are true

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A is wrong because from the scatter plot, only four athletes were faster in the second race than in the first one.

Option B is wrong because only 1 athlete had his second race time differing from the first race time by exactly 2 seconds.

Option C is true because exactly 9 of the times for the first race were at least 16 seconds

Option D is true because there are exactly 3 athletes who had the same time in both races

Option E is true because 8 of the times for the second race were less than 17 seconds

identify an equation in point slope form for the line perpendicular to y=3x+5 that passes through (4,-1)
Alborosie

Answer:

y-4 = (-1/3)(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to identify the equation in point slope form.

The standard equation of point slope form is:

(y-y₁) = m (x-x₁)

where m is the slope and x₁ and y₁ are the points

We are given point(4,-1) so,

x₁=4 and y₁=-1

And a perpendicular line: y =3x+5

Which is equal to y = mx+b

where m is slope so, slope m = 3

Since the line is perpendicular, so the slope in negative inverse of actual slope that m = -1/m

i.e, m = -1/3

So, the equation in point slope form is:

y-(-1) = (-1/3)(x-4)

=> y+1 = (-1/3)(x-4)
