Assuming they start saving at 0 dollars
45=total=duanesavings+micksavings
duanesavings=confusing, I will explain
mick savings =amount saves per week times number of weeks
duane saves 5 dollars every other week, aka 2.5 dollars per 1 week
DS=2.5w
MS=2w
since they save at same time and at that week, when the weeks are equal (w=w), 45 it total
DS+MS=45
2.5w+2w=45
4.5w=45
divide by 4.5 both sides
w=10
10 weeks
The answer is 4x + 50.
Step by Step: -25+75= 50
You can’t add or subtract a variable with a number.
Answer:
x = 26
y = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
(5x - 17)° + (3x - 11)° = 180° (angles in a straight line)
Solve for x
5x - 17 + 3x - 11 = 180
Collect like terms
5x + 3x - 17 - 11 = 180
8x - 28 = 180
Add 28 to both sides
8x = 180 + 28
8x = 208
Divide both sides by 8
x = 208/8
x = 26
Also:
(2y + 5)° + 90° + (3x - 11)° = 180° (angles on a straight line)
Plug in the value of x and solve for y
2y + 5 + 90 + 3(26) - 11 = 180
2y + 5 + 90 + 78 - 11 = 180
Collect like terms
2y + 162 = 180
Subtract 162 from both sides
2y = 180 - 162
2y = 18
y = 9 (dividing both sides by 2)
