Answer:

x = 5 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

                 MX + B

Jacob:       7x + 40

Savannah: 5x + 50

Equality:

7x + 40 = 5x + 50

subtract 5x from both sides of equation

2x + 40 = 50

subtract 40 from both sides of equation

2x = 10

divide by 2

Answer:

  • j = 7x +40; s = 5x +50
  • x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Jacob is saving $7 per week, so after x weeks, he has saved 7x in addition to the $40 he started with:

  j = 7x +40

Similarly, Savannah is saving $5 per week in addition to the $50 she started with, so her savings will be ...

  s = 5x +50

Jacob and Savannah will have the same amount of money when ...

  j = s

  7x +40 = 5x +50 . . . . substitute for j and s

  2x +40 = 50 . . . . . . . . subtract 5x from both sides

  2x = 10 . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 40 from both sides

  x = 5 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide both sides by 2

_____

<em>Comment on the equations</em>

I used j and s for the amounts that Jacob and Savannah accumulated, because I like to use variable names that remind me what they stand for. You may be expected to write these as y = equations, where y stands for the amount each person has saved.

One of the roots of the quadratic equation x^2−5mx+6m^2=0 is 36. Find the greatest possible value of the second root. 100PTS!!!
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

The greatest possible value is 54

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the quadratic equation

Given

x² - 5mx + 6m² = 0

We can rewrite this as

x² - 3mx - 2mx + 6m² = 0

(x² - 3mx) - (2mx - 6m²) = 0

x(x - 3m) - 2m(x - 3m) = 0

(x - 2m)(x - 3m) = 0

x - 2m = 0 or x - 3m = 0

So,

x = 2m or x = 3m .

2m and 3m are the roots of the equation.

Since one of the roots is 36

Assume

2m = 36

m = 36/2 = 18

3m is

3(18) = 54

If 3m = 36

m = 12

And

2m = 2(12) = 24.

The greatest possible value is 54
