Lets begin with the first sentence.  We will let S = Sarah's monthly earnings and A = Andrews.

S = A + 525 (since Sarah earns more than Andrew).

Then you are told they spend 1250 each month and save the rest.  The total savings will then be the difference times the number of months.

Savings per month (Sarah ) = S - 1250

Savings (Sarah Total) = (S - 1250)* number of months.

Plug in the number of months and total savings to figure out how much Sarah makes each month.

8250 = (S - 1250)*11

750 = S - 1250

S = 750 + 1250

S = 2000

From Sarah's earnings each month we can find Andrews (using the first equation).

2000 = A + 525

A = 2000 - 525

A = $1475

Finally you are asked for the yearly earnings:

12* $1475 = $17,700

Andrew earns $17,700 each year.

Cross multiply and divide!

if the total cost is $176, multiply by the % of sales tax and divide by 100 (100%)

176 multiplied by 6% = 1,056

Choose the slope-intercept form of 3x + 2y = 5. y = x – y = –x + y = –x + y = x –
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

y=\frac{-3}{2}x+\frac{5}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that an equation

3x+2y=5

We have to find the slope intercept form of given equation.

We know that slope intercept form of an equation is given by

y=mx+c

3x+2y=5

2y=5-3x

2y=-3x+5

y=\frac{-3}{2}x+\frac{5}{2}

Hence, the slope intercept form of given equation is given by

y=\frac{-3}{2}x+\frac{5}{2}

What is the rat pop in 1990? <br> What does the model predict the rat pop was in the year 2005?
algol13

Answer:

Pop in 1990 = 81 million rats

Pop in 2005 = 127 million rats

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function, the population of rats in 1990 is when we replace t with "0" which strictly gives the coefficient 81 that represents 81 million rats.

The rat population in 2005 is given by the formula when t = 15

This is: approximately 127 million rats.
