Answer:

11 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

If we multiply 50 by 11 we get 550 with a remainder of 100, if we're to take out another 50 for another week we would have 50 dollars remanding but the question says that we need to have at least 75 remaining so this will not be possible. Therefor 11 weeks is our answer.

I hope this helps have a great day :)

What would be a equation for (5,2) and (0,7)?

$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{5}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{2})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{0}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{7}) ~\hfill \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{7}-\stackrel{y1}{2}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{0}-\underset{x_1}{5}}}\implies \cfrac{5}{-5}\implies -1 \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{2}=\stackrel{m}{-1}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{5}) \\\\\\ y-2=-x+5\implies y = -x+7$

4 - 5/2 * (1/10x) = 1 what is the value of x

Inga [223]

$4 - 5 / 2 * (1/10x) = 1\\$

The first step is to identify the order in which the equation must be solved, by following PEMDAS (you might know it as BEDMAS):

Parenthesis (or Brackets)

Exponents

Multiplication and Division

Addition and Subtraction

My advice would be to add parenthesis, following these rules, if you are not very good at finding them immediately by sight.

So:

$4 - 5 / 2 * (\frac{1}{10x}) = 1\\\\4 - [(5/2)*(\frac{1}{10x})]=1\\\\4-(2.5*\frac{1}{10x})=1\\\\4-\frac{2.5}{10x}-1=0\\3-\frac{x}{4}=0\\\frac{x}{4}=3\\x=3*4\\x=12$

We check our answer:

$x=12\\4 - [(5 / 2) * (1/10)*(x)] = 1\\4 - [(5 / 2) * (\frac{1}{10}) * (12))] = 1\\4 - [2.5 * (\frac{1}{10})*12] = 1\\4 - [(\frac{2.5}{10})*12] = 1\\4 - [(\frac{1}{4})*12] = 1\\4 - 3 = 1\\1=1$
