Mr James gives £500 to his children Ally,
Barry and Cat in the ratio 2:3:5.
How much do they each receive?

Answers

Answer 1

Answers:

Ally gets 100 poundsBarry gets 150 poundsCat gets 250 pounds

=====================================================

Work Shown:

x = some positive real number

2x = amount Ally gets

3x = amount Barry gets

5x = amount Cat gets

Note that the ratio 2x:3x:5x reduces to 2:3:5 after dividing all parts by x.

Add up the parts and you should get a sum of 500 pounds. Solve for x.

2x+3x+5x = 500

10x = 500

x = 500/10

x = 50

Based on that x value, we then can say:

2x = 2*50 = 100 pounds is what Ally gets3x = 3*50 = 150 pounds is what Barry gets5x = 5*50 = 250 pounds is what Cat gets

As a check, 100+150+250 = 500.

Also, note that the ratio 100:150:250 fully reduces to 2:3:5 after dividing all parts by the GCF 50.

Those two facts help confirm our answers.

using the graph, determine the coordinates of the roots of the parabola​

Answers

Answer:

(-1, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Use of the coordinate plane.

The vertex of the parabola is 1 to the left and up 4.

Think of the vertex as where the curve starts.

Answer:

-3 and 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The roots of the parabola are the intersections of the graph and the x-axis (y = 0).

Since the graph's vertex is above the x-axis and opens down, the graph has two roots.

The points of intersection are:

[tex](-3,0)[/tex][tex](1,0)[/tex]

Therefore, the roots of the parabola are -3 and 1.

Graph the solution to this system of inequalities in the coordinate plane.
3y > 2x + 12
2x + y< -5

Answers

Answer:

The vertices of both where they cross show (-4,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

3y > 2x + 12

x < 3(y - 4)  / 2

y > 2 (x + 6)  / 2

2x + y< -5

= x> -5

set = together

x < 3(y - 4)  / 2  shows dotted ascending line attached through x=-6

This means x=--6 y = 0

x>-5 shows boundary dotted vertical line through -5

this means x = -5 y = 0

If it had been x ≥ -5 it would have been solid boundary line.

The area within the dotted lines create a right angle triangle where the far left angle shows ascends to (-6, 0) and crosses y at 0,4 however the shaded area will not got hat far and stop at -4,0 and the area below.

As seen attached when both are plotted with dash dotted boundary lines.

The vertices of both show (-5,1)

The angles of a quadrilaterals are x⁰, (x-10)⁰, (x+30)⁰ and ( 2x)⁰, then the greater angle is​

Answers

Answer:

136°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral = 360°

Sum the given angles and equate to 360

x + x - 10 + x + 30 + 2x = 360 , simplify left side

5x + 20 = 360 ( subtract 20 from both sides )

5x = 340 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 68

Then

largest angle = 2x = 2 × 68 = 136°

What is a system of equations?

A system of equations is a set or collection of two or more equations with the same variables. The common solutions are the intersecting points of the equations.

Given that is a graph of system of equations, we need to find the solution,

We know that the common solutions are the intersecting points of the equations.

So, here the curve and the line are intersecting at (4,8) and (0, -8)

Hence, the solution of the system of equations graphed are (4,8) and (0, -8)

How to solve this? I don’t get it how it is x=3 where she solve this ?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the logarithmic expression:

[tex]3log_{5}2 + log_{5}x = log_{5}24[/tex]

Using the Logarithmic Product Rule:

[tex]log_{a}x + log_{a}y = log_{a}(xy)[/tex]

And the Logartihmic Power Rule:

[tex]log_{a}x^{y} = ylog_{a}x[/tex]

Rewriting your given logarithmic expression by applying the power rule:  

[tex]log_{5}2^{3} + log_{5}x = log_{5}24[/tex]

I will use the following logarithmic property to cancel out the logarithmic expressions, which will show why x = 3.

    [tex]_{b}log_{b}x = x[/tex]

Raise each logarithmic expression by the same value as the base, 5:  

[tex](_{5}log_{5}2^{3} ) + (_{5}log_{5}x )= (_{5}log_{5}24)[/tex]

2³(x) = 24  (2³ is multiplied with x instead of addition because of the Product Rule).  

Now that you're left with just 2³(x) = 24, it's easy to see why the answer is x = 3:

2³(x) = 24

8x = 24

Divide both sides by 8:

8x/8 = 24/8

x = 3

How much simple interest does $4,678.00 earn in 529 days at a rate of 7.3%? Round to the nearest cent.

Answers

Answer:

$5,172.93

Step-by-step explanation:

We're gonna use the simple interest formula: P = A(1 + r(t))

P = final amount

A = starting amount (4,678)

r = rate (0.073)

t = years (529/365)

P = 4,678(1 + 0.073(529/365))

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Company A Total Cost:  Ca = $74

Company B Total Cost:  Cb = $65+$0.60m, where m is the miles driven.

We want to find for what values of m with Company A charge less than Company B:

Ca < Cb  ?

$74 < $65 + $0.60m

$9 < $0.60m

15 < m

m > 15 miles

Company A will cost less than Company B when less than 15 miles are driven.  The costs are the same for 15 miles and higher for Company B beyond 15 miles.
