FOR Middle SCHOO PLZ HELP IT's DUE IN 20 Min Kimberly and Mike have an equal amount of money. After Kimberly spent $50 and Mike spent $25, Mike’s money is 50% more than Kimberly’s. How much did Kimberly and Mike have at first

Kimberly and Mike had at first $100 each

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that Kimberly and Mike each have $x

∵ Kimberly has $x

∵ Kimberly spent $50

- Find the reminder with Kimberly by subtracting 50 from x

∴ The money left with Kimberly = x - 50

∵ Mike has $x

∵ Mike spent $25

- Find the reminder with Mike by subtracting 25 from x

∴ The money left with Mike = x - 25

∵ Mike's money is 50% more than Kimberly's money

- That means Mike's money is more than Kimberly's money by

  50% of Kimberly's money

∴ x - 25 = (x - 50) + 50%(x - 50)

∵ 50% =  = 0.5

∴ x - 25 = (x - 50) + 0.5(x - 50)

- Simplify the right hand side

∴ x - 25 = x - 50 + 0.5x - 25

- Add the like terms in the right hand side

∴ x - 25 = 1.5x - 75

- Add 75 to both sides

∴ x + 50 = 1.5x

- Subtract x from both sides

∴ 50 = 0.5x

- Divide both sides by 0.5

∴ 100 = x

∵ x represents the amount of money that Kimberly and

  Mike each had at first

∴ Kimberly and Mike had at first $100 each

the answer is 0.071

good luck! : d

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet
