Answer:

Shawn and Natasha have same amount in savings after 10 weeks.

Step-by-step explanation:

Shawn gets an allowance of $18 each week.

Amount saved by Shawn = \frac{1}{2}(\$18)=\$9

Natasha gets an allowance of $9 each week.

Amount saved by Natasha = \frac{2}{3}(\$9)=\$6

Suppose that Shawn and Natasha have same amount in savings after x weeks.

Also, Shawn started with $0 savings, and Natasha started with $30.

So,

9x=30+6x\\9x-6x=30\\3x=30\\x=10

Therefore,

Shawn and Natasha have same amount in savings after 10 weeks.

Help Please?! I don’t know how to do this

Domain 0≤x≤12   this means the domain (x values) are between x=0 and x=12 and you started measuring the degree of temperature starting at a time of 0 and stopped measuring the temperature at a time of 12 hours


Range -4≤y≤4   this means the range (y values) are between y=-4 and y=4. The range is referring to the degree in celcius based on what time you measured it


Hope this helps!

The width is 7 and the diagonal is 25 what is the height
Korvikt [17]
The height is 24.

We can use Pythagorean’s Theorem: a^2+b^2=c^2

substituting values we get:

a^2+7^2=25^2

Solving we get:
a^2+49=625
a^2=576
a=24.

So the height is 24.
