A) > since it is 50c per weekday and 75c each weekend assuming it allows for the 2 days each saturday/sunday. 50c * 5 = $2.50 since there are 5 days in weekdays 75c * 2 = $1.50 since there are 2 days in the weekend Add $2.50 and $1.50 to get $4.00
b) For 3 school days we know it is a weekday on the school week. So perform 50c * 3 which gives us <span>$1.50
</span>c) 12 days off from school is 10 weekdays and 1 weekend or 2 days of 75c So now just do 50c * 10 which is $5.00 and 75c * 2 which is $1.50 Add $5.00 and $1.50 and we get $6.50
d) 4 weeks = 20 weekdays since 5 *4 = 20 and 8 days in each weekend since 2 * 4 = 8 Now that we have the amount of weekdays and weekend days we can multiply. 50c * 20 = $10.00 75c * 4 = $3.00 Add $10.00 and $3.00 to get $13.00 for 4 weeks.
e) We have 1 day of the weekend and 2 weekdays here. 50c * 2 = $1.00 75c * 1 = 75c <span>$1.00 + 75c = $1.75 in those 3 days listed. </span> Add all these together to get your total value. $4.00 + $1.50 + $6.50 + $13.00 + $1.75 = $26.75
These equations do match up. All you have to do is find the solution to the first equation. After that, plug in that solution to the second equation. If it makes the equation true, then the equations match.
