Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the range, first order the data from least to greatest. Then subtract the smallest value from the largest value in the set.
Set up two equations:
Greg = 330 + 75X
Heather = 660 + 45x
Set them to equal and solve for x:
330 + 75x = 660 + 45x
Subtract 330 from both sides:
75x = 330 + 45x
Subtract 45x from both sides:
30x = 330
Divide both sides by 30:
x = 330 / 30
X = 11
11 months they will have the same amount saved.
So in matt's equation, he made a mistake in the a transision from line 2 to line 3
in line 2: -4(-2)2
in line 3: -4(4)
the mistake is that -2 times 2 is not equal +4 it is equal to -4
also from lines 5 to 6 he made a mistake in order of opperations (mulit division then addition and subtract)
line 5: -10+30/5
line 6: 20/5
so he first subtracted 10 then divided, he should have divided then subtracted
so the equation should have equaled
Karen used the correct (-) times (+) property and the order of operations
so Karen is correct and Matt is wrong.
