Answer:

B) 42:28

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's get 12:18 simplified to make it easier to compare:

12:18 -> 4:6 - > 2:3

Now let's check it against all the options:

A) 20:30 -> 2:3 and 2:3 = 2:3

Not our answer as it is congruent (equal too, the same as, etc)

B) We can see that the first number is larger than the second number, so without doing too much math we can see this is our answer!

42:28

(it simplifes to 6:4 -> 3:2)

(we do not have to do the following as we already have an answer, but here is the math)

C) 4:6

4:6 ->

2:3 = 2:3

D) 2:3

2:3 = 2:3

Mr. Taylor weighs 300 pounds. He went on the Subway diet and was guaranteed to lose 5 pounds per week. Write an equation that co

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

1.) 300 - 5w = 150

2.) 30 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

w = weeks on the diet

if every week he's on the diet, that means that the weeks * 5 is how many pounds he loses. If he's on the diet one week then he loses 5 pounds. 2 weeks then 10 pounds... etc. But because he's losing punds the value is negative

He starts at 300 pounds so the y-intercept (starting value) would be 300

Finally, because he's looking to get to 150 pounds, that is the final value you're solving for

So this is your firat equation:

300 - 5w = 150

Then we are looking for when two different eqaution have the same value.

Your equation is: 60 + 7w

Her equation is: 120 + 5w

Your final equation is 60 + 7w = 120 + 5w

Solve for this by getting w on one side, and your plain old variable-less value on the other. Do this by subtracting 5w from each side, as well as 60.

Your equation is now 2w = 60

Then divide the whole equation by 2, and you get w = 30

hope this helps, be safe :)

You want to put some money in a simple interest account. It pays 6% interest annually for 2 years. You would like to earn $750 i

Alex wants to borrow $1,000. The local bank says "10% Interest". So to borrow the $1,000 for 1 year will cost:$1,000 × 10% = $100

In this case the "Interest" is $100, and the "Interest Rate" is 10% (but people often say "10% Interest" without saying "Rate")

Of course, Alex will have to pay back the original $1,000 after one year, so this is what happens:

Alex Borrows $1,000, but has to pay back $1,100This is the idea of Interest ... paying for the use of the money

Answer:

$855

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for simple interest is I = PRT where I is the interest paid/earned, P is the principal amount deposited/invested, R is the rate as a decimal, and T = time in years.

I = PRT

I = (4500)(0.019)(10)

I = $855
