STEP ONE:
Set up the equation
45.25 + 7.25x = 25.25 + 9.75x
STEP TWO:
Subtract 7.25x from both sides
45.25 = 25.25 + 2.5x
STEP THREE:
Subtract 25.25 from both sides
20 = 2.5x
(Flip equation)
2.5x = 20
STEP FOUR:
Divide 2.5 from both sides
x = 8
Since x represents weeks, it will take 8 weeks for Brian and Dakota to have the same amount of money.
Hope this helped!
Hello.
Remember the Property of exponents:

Let's use it to solve our maths problem.

Subtract the exponents:

Therefore, the answer is

I hope it helps.
Have a nice day.

18 because I divided 36 divide by 2 should get 18
<span>We know that the runner completed her first race in 17.8 seconds and that she completed her second race in 16.9 seconds. Then the difference between the first race and the second race is .9 seconds. Now we divide .9 by 17.8 and multiply by 100 to get the percent decrease. We get 5.06%. The percent decrease in her time is 5%.</span>
When multiplying the same base with exponents, you keep the base the same and then you add the exponents, so for this question you do:
10^3 x 10^6
10^9
