Question

14. Mia saves $28 in 8 weeks. Her sister saves $18 in 24 days. Are the rates at which each sister saves equivalent? Explain your reasoning.

Answer 1

no they are not equivalent.

Explanation:

to start, the question has mias saving rate at weekly and we need to convert that to days so we can compare to her sister. we multiply 8*7 to find the number of days which is 56. we then divide $28 by 56. mias daily saving rate is y= .5x.

for mias sister we divide 18/24 which is .75. her sisters daily saving rate is y=.75x.

this shows that the saving rates for the sisters are not equivalent

Answer 2

Answer: No, they are not equivalent. They arent equivalent because 28$/56 days= 0.5/day

18$/24 days= 0.75/day
