First option:
y=money saved
x=number of months
y=30x+500
Second option:
y=50x+200
We have this system of equations:
y=30x+500
y=50x+200
We can solve this system of equations by equalization method
30x+500=50x+200
30x-50x=200-500
-20x=-300
x=-300/-20
x=15
so;
y=30x+500
y=30(15)+500
y=450+500
y=950
Answer; after 15 months, she would save the same amount using either option, the amount saved in either option will be $950.
You can either do this on the calculator, or in your head. As its a larger number, it is worth doing it on the calculator.
413/14= 29.5
The alternative method is to list all of the tens multiples, and the smaller multiples when you're getting close to the answer, and this will be able to help you.
14x10= 140
14x20=280
14x30= 420 (which is slightly too big)
14x29= 406 (slightly too small)
14x29.5= 413
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
9x^2-25
Step-by-step explanation:
You can solve this problem by using FOIL:
- FOIL (First, Outer, Inner, Last)
First: 3x*3x= 9x^2
Outer: 3x*-5= -15x
Inner: 3x*5 = 15x
Last: 5*-5= -25
Now add what we got together:
9x^2 -15x +15x -25
Answer: 9x^2 - 25
Note: Whenever when we see conjugates(coefficients of variables are same but real numbers are opposites) like these we can ignore the outer and inner of the foil process as they cancel out.
Hope this helps!
So first of all we need to know that area is length times width
Area = L x W
since we know the area is 42 and the length is 12 lets plug those in
42 = 12 x W
now we dont know what W is yet but we can figure it out by dividing 42 by 12
42/12 = 3.5
So W = 3.5!
but its asking for the perimeter and we know that perimeter is all of the sides of the rectangle added up. Heres a picture

3.5
see now we just add those all up together:)
12 + 12 + 3.5 + 3.5 = 31!!
so our perimeter is 31 inches:)
have a good one
