The number of weeks it will take both Sam and Marshall to have the same amount of savings in their accounts is 48 weeks

Given:

<em>Amount with Sam </em>= $2,500

<em>Additional savings each week</em> = $40

<em>Amount with Marshal</em> = $7,300

<em>Amount spent each week</em> = $60

let

x = <em>number of weeks</em>

<em>Sam equation:</em>

2500 + 40x

<em>Marshall's equation:</em>

7300 - 60x

Equate both

2500 + 40x = 7300 - 60x

<em>collect like terms</em>

2500 - 7300 = - 60x - 40x

-4800 = -100x

divide both sides by - 100

x = -4800 / -100

x = 48 weeks

Therefore, the number of weeks it will take both Sam and Marshall to have the same amount of savings in their accounts is 48 weeks

Two consecutive positive integers have a product of 6. what are the integers
sergejj [24]

Hey there!

One way to do this is find all the factors of 6 and then see which pair fit the requirements.

The factors of 6 are 1, 2, 3, and 6. (Note: There can be negative factors, but I am going to leave them out since it is asking for positive integers.)

You can find them by asking if each number can go into 6.

1, 2, 3, and 6 all go into 6, while 4 and 5 do not.

The requirements we have is that they must be consecutive <u>and</u> have a product of 6.

Consecutive means right after one another.

The only numbers that fit this are 2 and 3.

2 x 3 = 6

Hope this helps!

in the figures below the cube shaped box is 6 inches wide and the rectangular box is 10 inches long 4 inches wide and 4 inches h
IRINA_888 [86]
<span>The cube’s sides measures 6 inches and the measurement for the rectangular box is that it is 10 inches long, 4 inches thick and 4 inches high. To compute for the volume of a cube you must use the formula of V = a3 and for the rectangular prism is V = l x w x h.</span>
<span>Cube:    V = 6^3
</span>              <span>V = 216 inches^3</span>
<span>Rectangular Prism:       V = 10 x 4 x 4</span> <span>             
                                       V = 160 inches^3</span>
To identify how much greater the volume the cube from the rectangular box we subtract their volumes.
N = C – R where N stands for the unknown C for the volume of cube and R for the volume of Rectangular Box <span>
N = 216 inches^3 – 160 inches^3
</span> <span>N = 56 inches^3</span> <span>
So the cube is 56 inches3 greater than the rectangular box.</span>
