Stephen & Richard share a lottery win of £2950 in the ratio 2 : 3. Stephen then shares his part between himself, his wife &a

horsena [70]

Answer:

Stephen's wife got £354 more than his son.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Amount of Lottery = £2950

Now Given:

Stephen & Richard share a lottery amount in the ratio 2 : 3

Let the common factor between them be 'x'.

So we can say that;

$2x+3x=2950\\\\5x = 2950$

Dividing both side by 5 we get;

$\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{2950}{5}\\\\x = 590$

So we can say that;

Stephen share would be = $2x =2\times 590 = \£1180$

Now Given:

Stephen then shares his part between himself, his wife & their son in the ratio 3 : 5 : 2.

Let the common factor between them be 'y'.

So we can say that;

$3y+5y+2y=1180\\\\10y=1180$

Dividing both side by 10 we get;

$\frac{10y}{10}=\frac{1180}{10}\\\\y=118$

So Stephen's wife share = $5y = 5\times 118= \£590$

And Stephen's son share = $2y=2\times118 =\£236$

Now we need to find how much more her wife got then her son.

To find how much more her wife got than her son we will subtract Stephen's son share from Stephen's wife share.

framing in equation form we get;

Amount more her wife got than her son = $590-236 = \£354$

Hence Stephen's wife got £354 more than his son.

Find the area of the circle to the<br> nearest tenth. Use 3.14 for it<br> (11 mm)

Nikolay [14]

Answer:

The area of the circle is 379.94 mm²

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we need to use the area formula of a circle:

a = area

r = radius = 11 mm

π = 3.14

a = π * r²

we replace with the known values

a = 3.14 * (11 mm)²

a = 3.14 * 121 mm²

a = 379.94 mm²

Round to the nearest tenth

a = 379.94 mm² = 379.9 mm²

The area of the circle is 379.9 mm²

Describe how you would determine the x-intercepts from the factored form of a quadratic equation

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Please check explanations

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the factored form, all we have to do is to equate each of the factor to zero, then solve for x

The particular value of x represents the solution that shows the value of the x-intercept

for example

In a case of a quadratic equation where we have

(x-a)(x-b) = 0

Then we can have

(x-a) = 0 or ((x-b) = 0

Then we have x = a or x = b

a and b are the x intercepts in this case

Pls help asap!!!

Westkost [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the random variable. Since it is normally distributed and the population mean and population standard deviation are known, we would apply the formula,

z = (x - µ)/σ

Where

x = sample mean

µ = population mean

σ = standard deviation

From the information given,

µ = 474

σ = 32

x = 514

The probability of being below 514 is expressed as P(x < 514)

For x = 514,

z = (514 - 474)/32 = 1.25

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability value corresponding to area below the z score is 0.89

Therefore,

P(x < 514) = 0.89
