Let
x----------> number of weeks
y----------> saved money
we now that
<span>Michael begins with $20 and saves $5 per week
so
y=20+5x------> equation 1
and
</span><span>Lindsey begins with no money, but saves $10 per week
</span><span>y=10x-------> equation 2
</span><span>the number of weeks it will take for Lindsey and Michael to save the same amount of money is when equation 1 is equals to equation 2
</span>
therefore
20+5x=10x------> 10x-5x=20------> 5x=20-----> x=20/5-----> x=4 weeks
the answer is
4 weeks
Answer:
y = -2x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
the ? mark part or the first [] is the slope
the slope is rise / run
the "rise" is 2 down
the "run" is 1 left
so
-2 / 1 is the slope
the y intercept is -1 as the line touches the y axis at -1
so
y = -2x - 1
is your answer
