X + 3x = 12
(Or 4x=12)
the first x is the number of girls then the second x is the girls times 3, which is how many boys there are.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> the number of hours
y ---> the total cost of renting a jet ski in dollars
we know that
The linear equation in slope intercept form is equal to
where
m is the slope or unit rate of the linear equation
b is the y-intercept or initial value
In this problem we have
The slope is equal to
we have the ordered pair (3,265)
substitute in the linear equation
solve for b
----> fee for a lesson on how to use the jet ski
substitute
The answer is b because you go over 15 dollars with 5 sodas and it can be equal to 15 and be less than as well
Given that Betty saves $161 per month which is $141 less than Jack per month. find the amount that Jack will save in 2 years.
First, find how much Jack saves. We can do this buy adding 141 to 161 since Betty saves 141 less meaning we can reverse it by adding it.
141 + 161 = 302
Now, that we know how much Jack saves per month.
Then, we have to find out how many months are in 2 years.
We already know that there is 12 months in a year, so for 2 years, we can simply multiply by 2.
12 x 2 = 24
Therefore, there are 24 months in two years.
Lastly, multiply 24 months by the amount that Jack saves to get the amount in total.
24 x 302 = 7,248
Thus, Jack will save approximately $7,248 in 2 years.
