Answer:
Part 1) Helen's age is 32 years old and Jane's age is 24 years old
Part 2) 13 twenty-dollar bills
Step-by-step explanation:
Part 1) Helen is 8 years older than Jane. Twenty years ago Helen was three times as old as Jane. How old is each now and what is the equation?
Let
x----> Helen's age
y---> Jane's age
we know that
x=y+8 ----> equation A
(x-20)=3(y-20) -----> equation B
substitute equation A in equation B and solve for y
(y+8-20)=3(y-20)
y-12=3y-60
3y-y=60-12
2y=48
y=24 years
Find the value of x
x=y+8
x=24+8=32 years
Part 2)
Let
x-----> the number of five-dollar bills
y----> the number of twenty-dollar bills
we know that
5x+20y=305 -----> equation A
y=x+4 ------> x=y-4 ------> equation B
substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y
5(y-4)+20y=305
5y-20+20y=305
25y=325
y=13 twenty-dollar bills
Find the value of x
x=y-4
x=13-4=9 five-dollar bills
Answer:
4k + 2j + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
5k + 3 + 2j – 2 – k =
5k - k + 2j + 3 - 2
4k + 2j + 1
X=17.3
but the 3 has a line above. which means repeated
Yes, Bobby will have enough money if he saves for 9 weeks. You can find this through either substituting w for 9 in the equation, or solving the equation itself.
Substituting:

Substitute w for 9.

Simplify.

Solve.
255 is greater than 250, so yes, he will have enough money saved.
Solving the equation:

Original Equation

Subtract 30 from both sides.

Divide both sides by 25.
The number of weeks he needs is 8.8. When rounding it up, you get 9.
