a. If I doubled the money in my savings account, I would have $150.62.

b. three times the hourly wage plus $7.65 in tips equals $27.90

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Let the money in m savings account be represented by x.

If I doubled the money in my savings account, I would have $150.62. This means that:

(2 × x) = $150.62

2x = $150.62

Divide both side by x

2x/2 = $150.62/2

x = $75.31

The amount in the savings account is $75.31

b. Let the hourly wage be represented by x.

Three times the hourly wage plus $7.65 in tips equals $27.90. This will be:

(3 × x) + 7.65 = 27.90

3x + 7.65 = 27.90

3x = 27.90 - 7.65

3x = 20.25

x = 20.25/3

x = 6.75

The hourly wage is $6.75

Eleonore wants to prove that if a line divides two sides in a triangle proportionally, then it is parallel to the third side.

Answers

Please find image attached

Answer and explanation:

If (from the image attached) DE is a line segment that divides the sides AB and AC proportionally in ΔABC then we can prove that line segment DE is parallel to BC using the parallel transversal theorem. Based the parallel transversal theorem, the triangles ABC and ADE are similar therefore angles are congruent and line DE must be parallel to line BC
