At the bank, Derek made 7 withdrawals, each in the same amount. His brother, John, made 5 withdrawls, each in the same amount.
Let x be the amount of one of Derek's withdrawals
Each of John's withdrawals was $5 more than each withdrawal that Derek made.
x + 5 is t the amount of one of John's withdrawals
Derek made 7 withdrawals
So amount withdraw 7 times = 7x
John made 5 withdrawals
So amount withdraw 5 times = 5(x+5)
Both Derek and John withdrew the same amount of money in the end
(A) 7x = 5(x+5)
(B) Solve for x
7x = 5x + 25
Subtract 5x from both sides
2x = 25
Divide by 2
x = 12.5
(C) check your solution
we plug in 12.5 for x in 7x= 5x + 25
7(12.5) = 5(12.5) + 25
87.5 = 62.5+ 25
87.5 = 87.5
(D) Each brother withdrawal 87.5 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Converting percent to decimal : 2.2/100 = 0.022
Finding 2.2$ of $75k : 75,000 x 0.022 = $1,650 (also the increase in one year)
Finding how much it was worth after 11 years :
(75,000 x 0.022) x 11 = $18,150 or 1,650 x 11 = $18,150
Now add the product to the regular amount to find out the answer:
75,000 + 18,150 = $93,150 (which is how much it increased after 11 years)
1600<2570-125.5x<2000 subtract 2570 from all terms...
-970<-125.5x<-570 divide all terms by -125.5 (and reverse signs because of division by a negative!)
7.73>x>4.54 and x is months since January, and since months can only be integers...
x=[5,7]
So January + 5, 6, and 7 respectively are the three months that satisfy the equation...
June, July, and August.
