The correct answer is c y=5
The have been saving for 10 weeks.
Given:
Duane = $5 every other week. meaning every 2 weeks
Mick = $2 every week
Amount Saved = $45
First, divide Duane's $5 by 2 to get his weekly contribution.
$5/2 = $2.50
let x be the number of weeks.
Duane + Mick = $45
2.50x + 2x = 45
4.50x = 45
4.50x/4.50 = 45/4.50
x = 10 weeks
to check:
2.50x + 2x = 45
2.50(10) + 2(10) = 45
25 + 20 = 45
45 = 45
<span>So if you run around the outside of the enfield, it would take a little more than 5 laps to reach one mile. If you cut across at the goal line, you lap would only be 306.6 yards and it would take 5.74 laps to reach 1 mile </span>
=24/20 thus the answer is 1.2
