Thirty-five years later, while I was lying awake nights, frustrated, unable to see a future, Mr. Rickey, by now the president of

the Dodgers, was also lying awake at night, trying to make up his mind about a new experiment.
He had never forgotten the agony of that black athlete. When he became a front-office executive in St. Louis, he had fought, behind the scenes, against the custom that consigned black spectators to the Jim Crow section of the Sportsman's Park, later to become Busch Memorial Stadium. His pleas to change the rules were in vain. Those in power argued that if blacks were allowed a free choice of seating, white business would suffer.

Which detail best supports the central idea that many people oppose Branch Rickey’s ideas?

"Mr. Rickey, by now the president of the Dodgers, was also lying awake at night, trying to make up his mind about a new experiment."
"He had never forgotten the agony of that black athlete."
"[H]e had fought, behind the scenes, against the custom that consigned black spectators to the Jim Crow section of the Sportsman's Park"

Answer:

Karen has a total amount of $ 101

Maria has a total amount of $ 86

Explanation:

We'll begin by obtaining an expression for the total amount of money in Karen's account. This can be obtained as follow:

Let the number of weeks be x

Let the total amount be y

Karen deposited $ 28 when she opened the account and then deposit $ 5 weekly.

The total amount in x week can be written as:

y = 28 + 5x

For Maria, the total amount in x week is given by:

y = 8x + 7

Next, we shall determine the number of weeks in which they both have the same amount in their account.

For Karen's account, the total amount is:

y = 28 + 5x

For Maria's account, the total amount is:

y = 8x + 7

Total in Karen's = Total in Maraia's

28 + 5x = 8x + 7

Collect like terms

28 – 7 = 8x – 5x

21 = 3x

Divide both side by 3

x = 21/3

x = 7

Thus, they both have the same amount in the 7th week.

Next, we shall determine the total amount in each account in the 7th week. This is illustrated below:

For Karen's account,

y = 28 + 5x

x = 7

y = 28 + 5(7)

y = 28 + 35

y = $ 63

For Maria's account,

y = 8x + 7

x = 7

y = 8(7) + 7

y = 56 + 7

y = $ 63

Finally, we shall determine the total amount in each account 2 weeks after they have the same amount in their account. This is illustrated below:

For Karen's account,

y = 28 + 5x

x = 2

y = 28 + 5(2)

y = 28 + 10

y = $ 38

Total amount = 63 + 38 = $ 101

For Maria's account,

y = 8x + 7

x = 2

y = 8(2) + 7

y = 16 + 7

y = $ 23

Total amount = 63 + 23 = $ 86

SUMMARY:

Karen has a total amount of $ 101

Maria has a total amount of $ 86
