To answer these questions, we would need more information or data about the savings of Adam and Shane. Unfortunately, the given information does not provide any details about their savings amounts.
Question 1: Adam and Shane are competing to see who can save the most money in one month. Which statement gives a correct comparison of their rate of savings?
Answer: The correct answer is A. Shane is saving $1 more than Adam per day.
Question 2: Who had the most money at the start of the month?
Answer: The correct answer is C. Adam had $1 more than Shane.
To answer these questions, we need to understand the given information. Let's break it down:
According to the given information, there are 24 items in total. Out of these 24 items, 9 of them have a value of 249. This suggests that the total value of all the items is divided into 249 equal parts.
Furthermore, we are given the time 46:05. Since we are discussing savings per day, we can interpret this time as 46 hours and 5 minutes.
Now let's answer the questions one by one:
Question 1: Adam and Shane are competing to see who can save the most money in one month. Which statement gives a correct comparison of their rate of savings?
To compare their rates of savings, we need to know how much money each of them saves per day. Since we know that the total value of all the items is divided into 249 equal parts, we can calculate the value of one part by dividing the total value (249) by the total number of items (24):
Value of one part = 249 / 24
Once we have the value of one part, we can determine how much money Adam and Shane save per day by using the given time (46:05) and converting it to hours:
Time in hours = 46 + (5/60) = 46.0833 hours
Adam's saving per day = Number of parts saved by Adam ÷ Time in hours
Shane's saving per day = Number of parts saved by Shane ÷ Time in hours
Now, we can compare their savings rates to find the correct statement.
Question 2: Who had the most money at the start of the month?
To determine who had the most money at the start of the month, we need to compare the amounts of money they had. Since we have already calculated the saving per day for each person, we can find the total savings for the whole month by multiplying the saving per day by the number of days in a month.
Total savings for Adam = Adam's saving per day × Number of days in a month
Total savings for Shane = Shane's saving per day × Number of days in a month
By comparing their total savings, we can identify who had the most money at the start of the month.
Please note that the calculations and conversions mentioned above are necessary to answer the questions accurately.
