The have been saving for 10 weeks.
Given:
Duane = $5 every other week. meaning every 2 weeks
Mick = $2 every week
Amount Saved = $45
First, divide Duane's $5 by 2 to get his weekly contribution.
$5/2 = $2.50
let x be the number of weeks.
Duane + Mick = $45
2.50x + 2x = 45
4.50x = 45
4.50x/4.50 = 45/4.50
x = 10 weeks
to check:
2.50x + 2x = 45
2.50(10) + 2(10) = 45
25 + 20 = 45
45 = 45
Answer:
6:12
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 1+2=3
18/3=6
6x1=6
6x2=12

Answer:
13.75 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find how many km the driver can travel:
11(35)
= 385
Then, divide this by 28 to find how many hours the driver can travel:
385/28
= 13.75
So, the driver can travel 13.75 hours
Suppose that equation of parabola is
y =ax² + bx + c
Since parabola passes through the point (2,−15) then
−15 = 4a + 2b + c
Since parabola passes through the point (-5,-29), then
−29 = 25a − 5b + c
Since parabola passes through the point (−3,−5), then
−5 = 9a − 3b + c
Thus, we obtained following system:
4a + 2b + c = −15
25a − 5b + c = −29
9a − 3b + c = −5
Solving it we get that
a = −2, b = −4, c = 1
Thus, equation of parabola is
y = −2x²− 4x + 1

Rewriting in the form of
(x - h)² = 4p(y - k)
i) -2x² - 4x + 1 = y
ii) -3x² - 7x = y - 11
(-3x² and -7x are isolated)
iii) -3x² - 7x - 49/36 = y - 1 - 49/36
(Adding -49/36 to both sides to get perfect square on LHS)
iv) -3(x² + 7/3x + 49/36) = y - 3
(Taking out -3 common from LHS)
v) -3(x + 7/6)² = y - 445/36
vi) (x + 7/6)² = -⅓(y - 445/36)
(Shifting -⅓ to RHS)
vii) (x + 1)² = 4(-1/12)(y - 445/36)
(Rewriting in the form of 4(-1/12) ; This is 4p)
So, after rewriting the equation would be -
(x + 7/6)² = 4(-⅛)(y - 445/36)

Based on the given problem of -7x⁴ = 36, the solution to the equation is x = -1.5.
<h3>What is the solution to this problem?</h3>
The equation to find x is given as:
-7x⁴ = 36
Solving it gives:
-7x⁴ = 36
x⁴ = 36/-7
x⁴ = -36/7
x = ⁴√(-36/7)
x = -1.5
In conclusion, x is -1.5.
