£140 is divided between Angad, Nick & June so that Angad gets twice as much as Nick, and Nick gets three times as much as Ju
kramer

Answer:

84

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say Nick gets amount N, Angad amount A, and June amount J.

Here's what we know:

A+N+J=140

A=2*N

N=3*J.

Let's plug these values in.

N=3*J, so A+N+J=140 can now be A+3*J+J=140.

A=2*N, and N=3*J, so A=2*3*J=6*J. Then, A+3*J+J=140 is now 6*J+3*J+J=140, so 10*J=140 and J=14. N = 3*J=42 and A=2*N=84. Checking this, 14+42+84=140, so we are good to go!

Find the midpoint of the line segment whose endpoints are (3, 10) and (7, 8).
Stels [109]

Answer:

Option 2 is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the coordinates of lines segment (3, 10) and (7, 8). we have to find the mid-point of given line segment.

Mid-point formula states that if (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2) are the coordinates of end points of line segment then the coordinates of mid-point are

(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})

∴ Coordinates of mid-point of line segment joining the points          (3, 10) and (7, 8) are

(\frac{3+7}{2},\frac{10+8}{2})=(\frac{10}{2},\frac{18}{2})=(5,9)

Hence, option 2 is correct.
