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:3/8
Step-by-step explanation:
The simplest form of
15
/40 is 3
/8
.
Steps to simplifying fractions
Find the GCD (or HCF) of numerator and denominator
GCD of 15 and 40 is 5
Divide both the numerator and denominator by the GCD
15 ÷ 5
40 ÷ 5
Reduced fraction:
3
/8
Therefore, 15/40 simplified to lowest terms is 3/8.
Answer:
Ani age is 21
Biju age is 18
Step-by-step explanation:
let Ani age be X
let Biju age be Y
the difference of their age is 3
i.e X - Y = 3......,....(equ. 1)
let Dharam age be A
let Cathy age be B
i.e A = 2x
B = y/2
the difference of their age is 30
Y/2 - 2x = 30..... (equ. 2)
from equ.1 X = ( 3+y).........( equ.3)
y/2 - 2(3+y) = 30
y/2 - 6 + 2y = 30
multiply both side by 2
y - 6 + 2y = 60
y + 2y = 60 - 6
3y = 54
Y = 18
from equ.3
X = 3+Y where y is 18
X = 3+18 = 21
