Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Convert the mixed number to an improper fraction to match the rest of the problem (this just makes it easier for now, the answer will still be a mixed number)
-1
becomes 
2. Re-write the new equation. When there is a "+" in front of a set of parentheses the expression doesn't change aside from removing the plus signs.
The new equation becomes

3. Calculate. Just work out the new expression.
The answer is 
4. Convert to a simplified mixed decimal.
27 goes into 20 once with seven left over, making the answer 1

1st week 10 5
2nd week 20 10
3rd week 30 20
4th week 40 40

A) Amanda's method is linear because the number of minutes increased by an equal number every week.</span>
common difference is 10.
1st week 0 + 10 = 10
2nd week 10 + 10 = 20
3rd week 20 + 10 = 30
4th week 30 + 10 = 40
Billy's method is exponential:
5(2)^x
1st week 5(2⁰) = 5(1) = 5
2nd week 5(2¹) = 5(2) = 10
3rd week 5(2²) = 5(4) = 20
4th week 5(2³) = 5(8) = 40
5/2 or 2.5
Hope this helps!
I'm Unsure, But Here's What I Found.
9.99×65=649.35
10.68×65=694.2
((10.68÷9.99)−1)×100=6.9%
Y can be any number with the given question
