Simplified expression for total amount spent is 10(2.05 + m)
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Write expression for expense on joining cooking club for m months.
Expense = 8.50 + 6.25 × m
- Step 2: Write expression for expense on joining movie club for m months.
Expense = 12 + 3.75 × m
- Step 3: Calculate the total amount spent on both clubs
Total Amount = 8.50 + 6.25m + 12 + 3.75m = 20.5 + 10m = 10(2.05 + m)
Step-by-step explanation:
let age of samantha be 3x and age of jason be x.(since samantha is three times as old as jason)
Now,
3x+x=56 (sum of their ages is 56)
or 4x=56
or x=56/4
or x=14
therefore age of samantha=3x=3×14=42
age of jason = x = 14
