Answer:
Equation 1 = Equation 2
165 - 4x = 145 - 3.50x
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of 30-day periods.
Tavon has a gift card for $165 that loses $4 for each 30-day period it is not used.
Therefore the equation =
$165 -$4 × x
= 165 - 4x.......... Equation 1
He has another gift card for $145 that loses $3.50 for each 30-day period it is not used.
$145 -$3.50 × x
= 145 - 3.50x........... Equation 2
Hence, an equation for the number of 30-day periods until the value of the gift cards will be equal is obtained by equating Equation 1 and Equation 2 together
So, we have
Equation 1 = Equation 2
165 - 4x = 145 - 3.50x
We simplify further:
165 - 145 = -3.50 + 4.0x
20 = 0.5x
x = 20/0.5
x = 40
Therefore, number of each 30-day periods until the value of the gift cards will be equal is 40
Answer:
20 feet per second
Step-by-step explanation:
130/6.5 = 20
20 5/81 in its simplest form is 20 5/81.
20 5/81 originally looks like this ⇒ 1625/81
((20 * 81)+5)/81 = (1620+5)/81 = 1625/81 * this is an improper fraction because the numerator is greater than the denominator. Improper fractions must be converted to proper fractions. It will then become a mixed fraction.
<u> 0020 5/81</u>
81 | 1625
<u>162 </u> * 81 x 2
05
Let Kamil get x. Therefore Sean would get (x + 56).
Kamil and Sean are in the ratio: 3:5
That means: x : (x + 56) = 3 : 5
x / (x + 56) = 3/5
5*x = 3*(x + 56)
5x = 3*x + 3*56
5x = 3x + 168
5x - 3x = 168
2x = 168
x = 168 / 2
x = 84
Therefore Kamil had, x = 84, and Sean had (x + 56) = 84 + 56 = 140
Kamil had $84 and Sean had $140
