Answer: It will take Damon 6 weeks to save the money he needs to buy the snowboard
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's see what the problem is giving us:
-The variable X will represent the number of weeks it will take Damon to save the money he needs.
- Damon has $40
- Damon is going to safe $20 weekly
- The snowboard costs $160
Therefor:
Our equation will be: $40 + $20X = $160
Step 1
We need to isolate the variable by subtracting in both sides of the equation 40 in order to maintain the equality.
40 - 40 + 20X = 160 - 40
This will let us with 20X = 120
Step 2
We have to isolate the variable again, but this time (because the variable is being multiplied by 20) we have to divide on both sides of the equation.
20X/20 = 120/20
Therefore: X=6

Answer: Total cost is $1.75
Explanation:
Since we have given that
Number of postcards bought by Doug's family= 7
Cost of each postcard including tax = $0.25
Total cost is given by
Now, we want to show this in number line :
On the number line put all the number with a difference of 0.25 and run the number line seven times and we get the answer.
Each step is of length 0.25 and there are 7 jumps to reach required answer.
So, after 7 jumps we reach at 1.75 which is the required answer.
Hence total cost is $1.75
Answer:
m = 5/2
OR
m = 2 1/2
OR
m = 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Tax = 7.65% of $23, 750
Tax = 0.0765 x 23750
Tax = $1816.88 (nearest hundredth)
