Answer:

It will take 5 weeks for you and your friend to have the same balance

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Your savings expression be

135 + 12x

Your friends savings expression

95 + 20x

Where,

x = number of weeks for you and your friend to have the same balance

Equate the two expressions

135 + 12x = 95 + 20x

Collect like terms

135 - 95 = 20x - 12x

40 = 8x

Divide both sides by 8

40/8 = x

x = 40/8

= 5

x= 5 weeks

Check

Your savings expression

135 + 12x

135 + 12(5)

=135 + 60

= $195

Your friends savings expression

95 + 20x

95 + 20(5)

= 95 + 100

= $195

Therefore, It will take 5 weeks for you and your friend to have the same balance

The cost of 3 notebooks and 2 pencils is $5.10. At the same prices, the cost of 2 notebooks and 3 pencils is $4.65. What is the
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

$1.95

Step-by-step explanation:

notebook = n

pencil = p

3n + 2p = 5.10

2n + 3p = 4.65

multiply top equation by 2 and bottom by 3

6n + 4p = 10.20

6n +9p = 13.95

subtract bottom equation from the top equation

-5p = -3.75

divide by 5, negatives cancel out

p  = 0.75

sub p into either equation, I chose the original top equation

3n + 2(0.75) = 5.10

3n + 1.50 = 5.10

subtract 1.50 from both sides

3n = 3.60

divide both sides by 3

n = 1.20

p = 0.75

n + p = 1.95 (the fourth option)
