The equation for the first option is Y=10x + 200
The equation for the second option is Y=30x + 100
X = one month
To find when they would be the same about you have to set the equations equal to each other
10x + 200 = 30x + 100
-10x -100 -10x -100
100= 20x
5 = x
After five months she would save the same amount. To find how much is saved you have to plug in 5 for x in one of the equations. You can always double-check 5 by plugging it in both equations and making sure you get the same answer
Y= 10(5) + 200 = 250
Y= 30(5) + 100 = 250
She would have saved $250 after five months by using either method

Hope I helped!!✌
We are given the height of Joe which is 1.6 meters, the length of his shadow is 2 meters when he stands 3 meters from the base of the floodlight.
First, we have to illustrate the problem. Then we can observe two right triangles formed, one is using Joe and the length of the shadow, the other is the floodlight and the sum of the distance from the base plus the length of the shadow. To determine the height of the floodlight, use ratio and proportion:
1.6 / 2 = x / (2 +3)
where x is the height of the flood light
solve for x, x = 4. Therefore, the height of the floodlight is 4 meters.
