The <em>correct answers</em> are:
It would take 5 months and she would save $250.
Explanation:
Let m be the number of months.
For the first way of saving, $200 up front and $10 each month, the expression would be
200+10m.
For the second way of saving, $100 up front and $30 each month, the expression would be
100+30m.
Setting them equal gives us the equation
200+10m = 100+30m
Subtract 10m from each side:
200+10m-10m = 100+30m-10m
200 = 100+20m
Subtract 100 from each side:
200-100 = 100+20m-100
100 = 20m
Divide both sides by 20:
100/20 = 20m/20
5 = m
It would take 5 months.
$200 up front and $10 each month for 5 months:
200+10m
200+10(5)
200+50
250
She would save $250.
<span>-34-r=-7(8r-3)
- 34 - r = - 56r + 21
- r + 56r = 21 + 34
55r = 55
r = 55/55
r = 1</span>
If you have a graph, I’d use it and make curved lines going down to plot the points!
