Answer:
After 10 years the investment A will be bigger than investment B.
Step-by-step explanation:
In Investment A, 50 increases each year by 8% and in investment B, 60 increases by 3 each year.
If after x years the investment A will be equal to investment B, then we can write the equation as

⇒ 50 + 4x = 60 + 3x
⇒ x = 10
Therefore, after 10 years the investment A will be bigger than investment B. (Answer)
The average distance of Neptune from the Sun is 2,795,084,800 miles or 4,498,252,900 kilometers. Because its orbit is elliptical, its distance from the Sun changes depending on where it is in its orbit. The closest Neptune gets to the Sun is 2,771,087,000 miles or 4,459,630,000 kilometers. The farthest it gets from the Sun is 2,819,080,000 miles or 4,536,870,000 kilometers.
Answer:
1 month
Step-by-step explanation:
249 is the amount she spends for buying the kitten, (299-50=249) which she only has to pay once.
20 is the amount she has to spend every month, the rate of change.
The problem can be modeled with the general equation:
y = 20x + 249
In this equation, x the the time in months and y is the amount of money spent.
Substitute 250 for y.
y = 20x + 249
250 = 20x + 249 <= isolate x to get the number of months
1 = 20x
x = 1/20
Carol will only spent money every month, not for 1/20 of a month.
It will only take Carol 1 month to spent $250.
Check answer:
Substitute x for 1
y = 20x + 249
y = 20(1) + 249
y = 269
269 is more than 250 already.

Answer:
Gabe worked 65, Abe worked 62 and Babe worked 69.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Gabe = x
Therefore, Abe worked: x-3 and Babe worked x+4
So,
x+(x-3)+(x+4)=196
3*x+1=196
3*x=195
x=65
Then,
x-3= 62
x+4=69
