Let
x----------> number of weeks
y----------> saved money
we now that
<span>Michael begins with $20 and saves $5 per week
so
y=20+5x------> equation 1
and
</span><span>Lindsey begins with no money, but saves $10 per week
</span><span>y=10x-------> equation 2
</span><span>the number of weeks it will take for Lindsey and Michael to save the same amount of money is when equation 1 is equals to equation 2
</span>
therefore
20+5x=10x------> 10x-5x=20------> 5x=20-----> x=20/5-----> x=4 weeks
the answer is
4 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:
you just divide ig
Let's say the second piece is x ft long
The first piece is 2x ft long
The third piece is x+4 ft long
All of the pieces should add up to 10ft
x+2x+x+4=10
4x= 6
x=1.5ft
The first piece is 2x ft long=3 ft long
Answer:
$90
Step-by-step explanation:
The principal amount in the loan taken by Sharon is $750 . Note hat the $20 processing fee is a one time cost and is not included in the interest calculation.
Annual Rate of interest offered to Sharon is 12%
Time interval for the loan transaction is 1 year.
So the interest for 1 year is given by \[Principal * Rate * Year /100\]
\[750 * 12 * 1 /100\] = $90
So, Sharon will have to pay $90 as interest for the loan amount $750 borrowed for one year at the rate 12%.
