Let b>a,
a+b=40 so we can say a=40-b
We are told that b-a=6.5, using a found above in the equation gives us:
b-(40-b)=6.5
b-40+b=6.5
2b-40=6.5
2b=46.5
b=23.25, and since a=40-b
a=40-23.25
a=16.75
So a=16.75 and b=23.25
check...
16.75+23.25=40, 40=40
23.25-16.75=6.5, 6.5=6.5
Answer:
6 weeks
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Nikki :
Initial amount = $1100 ;
Amount spent per week = $35
Mich:
Initial amount = $520
Amount saved per week = $55
Number of weeks they'll both have the same amount :
Let number of weeks = w
For Nikki who is spending :
1100 - 35w - - - (1)
For Mich who is saving :
520 + 55w - - - (2)
Equate (1) and (2)
1100 - 35w = 520 + 55w
1100 - 520 = 55w + 35w
580 = 90w
w = 580 / 90
w = 6.444
