The Owens family has saved up $50,000 for a down payment on a house. They are
going to use this money as the 10% down payment their lender is requiring them to
make to purchase the house. What is the price of the house that the Owens family
is buying?
ra solved this problem, she decided to take 10% of $50,000, and she got an
answer of $5,000. She knows that this number is too low to be the price of a house.
Explain to Myra in your own words how to solve the problem correctly. You may
set up the equation any way you'd like to in your explanation, but you must include
a variable x that represents the total price of the house in your equation. (6 points)

Can you summarize this? it takes time and caution to perfect anything which must be concealed. it takes time to crush men who are pursuing legitimate trade. but one of mr. rockefeller’s most impressive characteristics is patience. there never was a more patient man, or one who could dare more while he waited. the folly of hurrying, the folly of discouragement, for one who would succeed, went hand in hand. everything must be ready before he acted, but while you wait you must prepare, must think, work. "you must put in, if you would take out." his instinct for the money opportunity in things was amazing, his perception of the value of seizing this or that particular invention, plant, market, was unerring.
