This is because Nate is isolating the variable. For example, in the equation 10x=40, you would divide both sides by 10 in order to get the variable by itself, just as Nate did. Nate is also performing the inverse operation, which allows for one to undo/unravel the question to find the answer.

80 POINTS HELP<br> 1. What is the value of x? Show all of your work.
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

x = 9cm

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a right triangle so we can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2  where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

6^2 + x^2 = ( sqrt(117) ^2)

36 + x^2 = 117

Subtract 36 from each side

x^2 = 117 -36

x^2 = 81

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(81)

x = 9

•Mr. Jones and Mr. Thomas
mamaluj [8]

The profit should be shared in proportion to Mr Jones, Mr Thomas and Mr forson capitals in the ratio 21 : 32 : 27 respectively.

<h3>Proportion</h3>

  • Mr Jones capital = $12600
  • Mr Thomas capital =$19200
  • Mr forson capital = $16200

Total capital = $12600 + $19200 + $16200

= $48,000

Mr Jones proportion = $12600 / $48,000

= 21/80

Mr Thomas proportion = $19200 / $48,000

= 32/80

Mr forson proportion = $16200 / $48000

= 27/80
