Answer:
105 sweets
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 4 + 1 + 2 = 7 parts in total
Stephen gets 4 parts (or 4x)
Jim gets gets 2 parts (or 2x)
Given,
Stephen gets 30 more than Jim, we can write:
Stephen = Jim + 30
or
4x = 2x + 30
We can solve for "x":
There are 7 parts of sweets altogether (or 7x), we know x so:
There are:
7 * 15 = <u>105 sweets</u> altogether
Answer:
Initial value for Mrs. White is $600 more than Mrs. Brown.
The rate of change is same for both.
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost of car purchased by Mrs. White = $3,000
Rate at which she pays for the car = $300 per month
Cost of car purchased by Mrs. Brown = $2,400
Rate at which she pays for the car = $300 per month
So,
Initial value for Mrs. White was =$3,000
Initial values for Mrs. Brown was =$2,400
difference in initial values =$600
∴ Initial value for Mrs. White is $600 more than Mrs. Brown.
Rate of change of payment due for Mrs. White = $300 per month
Rate of change for payment due for Mrs. Brown = $300 per month
∴ The rate of change is same for both.
Since Mrs White had a higher initial value than Mrs Brown and both having same rates of change, therefore Mrs. White will take a longer time to pay the due.
