We need to set up a system, rather than a single equation, because there are two variables involved.
The first equation represents the fact that the two numbers are in a 3:2 ratio:
The second equation represents the fact that their sum is 35:
So, we have the following system:
Using the expression for x in the first equation, the second one becomes
which implies
Answer:
We conclude that the person is saving $60 dollars per week.
Hence, option C is true.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the table chart
Week Saving Money
2 60
4 120
6 180
8 240
We know to determine the slope to find the rate of change.
Taking the points (2, 60) and (4, 120)
Rate of change = Slope = [y₂ - y₁] / [x₂ - x₁]
= [120 - 60] / [4 - 2]
= 60 / 2
= $30 dollars per week
Now, taking the points (4, 120) and (6, 180)
Rate of change = Slope = [180 - 120] / [6 - 4]
= [60] / [2]
= $30 dollars per week
Now, taking the points (6, 180) and (8, 240)
Rate of change = Slope = [240 - 180] / [8 - 6]
= [60] / [2]
= $30 dollars per week
- This concludes that the rate of change is contant i.e. $30 dollars per week
Therefore, we conclude that the person is saving $60 dollars per week.
Hence, option C is true.

Answer: <u>C. 20-.40p</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that from the given information that each pound is worth 40 cents, and that its being subtracted from the twenty dollar bill.
"Why are the others choices wrong?"
A. p-20, isn't the proper equation due to the stated information.
B. B. 20 -40p, this equation has Zelma pay $40 dollars each pound, which isn't correct due to what the text has stated ("for 40 cents per pound").
D. 40p-20, from the given text, this equation is wrong ("She pays the clerk with a twenty-dollar bill), it never states that she will be charged twenty dollars, or be given forty for each pound.
