Mathematics

Step2247 [10]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of months is our unknown, which we will call x. y is the amount she saves. Representing the fact that she puts $10 away per month is 10x. If she puts $300 down initially and then adds 10 per month to that, the first equation is

y = 10x + 300

The same goes for the second option. Putting $30 away every month is represented as 30x, and if she is starting with 100 and adding 30 a month to it, the second equation is

y = 30x + 100

We are being asked to find the number of months where the amount Tina saves is equal. Since y is the amount Tina has saved and we want to know when these amounts are equal, we will set the equations equal to each other and solve for x, the number of months.

10x + 300 = 30x + 100 and

200 = 20x so

x = 10. After 10 months, Tina will have saved the same amount of money regardless of which option she has chosen. This is only true for 10 months though. After that, one will show more of a savings than the other.

charmaine and tesha each have a number of cards, in the ratio 2:3. tesha and holly have a number of cards in the ratio 2:1. if t
Sav [38]
C:t=2:3
t:h=2:1

multiply first equation by 2 and 2nd by 3
c:t=4:6
t:h=6:3
so
c:t:h=4:6:3

if t is 4 more than c
t is 6 units and c is 4
6-4=2
so 4=2 units
2=1 unit

hollly is 3 units
3*2=6
holly has 6 cards

HELP PLS ILL MARK U BRAINLIEST
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

-3.4p + 3p + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the parenthesis with the minus sign in front of it. Basically, inverse all of the operations within the parenthesis.

The -3q will become a 3q and the -4 will become a 4.

So now with the positive 3q and 4, you will just add those to the -3.4p

Therefore, the answer is -3.4p + 3p + 4

Hope this helped! Please mark me as brainliest!
