Answer:
Sian would receive 20 Pounds while Abigail would receive 10 Pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Sian is twice as old as her sister Abigail, it means that if Abigail's age is T years then Sian's age would be 2T years.
If they divide 30 pounds in the ratio of their ages, the ratio of their ages will be
T : 2T (Ratio of Abigail's gae to Sian's age)
The amount received by Abigail
= T/(T + 2T) × 30
= T/3T × 30
= 1/3 × 30
= 10 Pounds
The amount received by Sian
= 2T/(T + 2T) × 30
= 2T/3T × 30
= 2/3 × 30
= 20 Pounds
Multiply the first equation by 2:
4x+10y=8
Subtract the second equation from this so the 4x cancels:
3y = -3
y = -1
Plug into first equation:
2x -5 = 4
2x = 9
x = 9/2 = 4 1/2 = 4.5
So (x,y) = (-1,4.5)
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
Use pythag to solve.
x^2+5^2=13^2
x=12
3a) 3:1 or 3/1
3b) 3:4 or 3/4
4) 125 pages a day
5) 10 skittle per ounce in a bag
6) Market: $23.60/5= $4.72*7= $33.04, Orchard: $32.76/7= $4.68*5= $23.40, Which? Orchard because it is cheaper to buy 7 there than to buy 7 at market place because it is $00.30 cents cheaper at Orchard
7) Because money is always on top of time, amount, weight, etc.
Answer:
(6,4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Midpoint=((x1+x2)/2 ,(y1+y2)/2)
((10+2)/2 ,(7+1)/2)
(6,4)
x1=10
x2=2
y1=2
y2=1
