The have been saving for 10 weeks.
Given:
Duane = $5 every other week. meaning every 2 weeks
Mick = $2 every week
Amount Saved = $45
First, divide Duane's $5 by 2 to get his weekly contribution.
$5/2 = $2.50
let x be the number of weeks.
Duane + Mick = $45
2.50x + 2x = 45
4.50x = 45
4.50x/4.50 = 45/4.50
x = 10 weeks
to check:
2.50x + 2x = 45
2.50(10) + 2(10) = 45
25 + 20 = 45
45 = 45
The equations are parallel because the slopes are opposite reciprocals, which means if you flip -3/2 and multiply by -1 you get 2/3.
Answer:
Canadian railcars show weight figures in both imperial and metric. Canadian railways also maintain exclusive use of imperial measurements to describe train length and height in feet and train masses in short tons. Canadians typically use a mix of metric and imperial measurements in their daily lives.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
A polynomial written in decreasing order of the degree of its monomials ( or single term ) is called its standard form,
In polynomial,

Degrees are written in increasing order,
⇒ It is not written in standard form,
