Scott = Anish ÷ 3 or 1/3 Anish
Anish = Nick ÷ 2 or 1/2 Nick
S + A + N = 140
1/6 N + 3/6 N + 6/6 N = 10/6 N (140)
10/6 N = (140)
140 ÷ 10 = 1/6 N (14) = Scott
9/6 N (126) - 3/6 (42 = Anish) = N = 84
S = 14
A = 42
N = 84

CHECK?

14 = 1/3 of 42
42 = 1/2 of 84
14 + 42 + 84 = 140 :)

Let x = # of computer games nick has
then
Anish has    1/2x games
and
Scot has  1/2*1/3   = 1/6x  games
 thus
1/6x + 1/2x + x  =  140
1/6x + 3/6x + x  = 140
10/6x = 140
10x =140* 6
   x       =      84  >        Nick
  1/2x    =    42  >    Anish
   1/6x    =   14    >    Scot

For what value of “a”are the graphs of 5y = -2x + 10 and 3y = aX- 15 parallel
Pie

Answer:

a = -6/5

Step-by-step explanation:

For the graphs to be parallel the graphs should have same slope(m)

So we rewrite both our equations in the slope-intercept form then compare the slope to find the value of a like this,

y=mx+b

This equation is the slope-intercept form we convert both our equations in this form firstly taking equation 1

5y=-2x+10\\\\y=\frac{-2x+10}{5} \\\\y=\frac{-2}{5}x+\frac{10}{5} \\\\y=\frac{-2}{5}x+2

so if we compare it with y = mx + b the coefficient of x is m and hence

m= -2/5 now solving for equation 2

3y=ax-15\\\\y=\frac{ax-15}{3} \\\\y=\frac{ax}{3}-\frac{15}{3}  \\\\y=\frac{a}{3}x-5\\\\

so here if we compare it with y = mx + b the coeffienct of x is a/3 so since parallel lines have same slope by the formula:

m_1=m_2

we equation both the slope to each other to find the value of a like this,

m_1=m_2\\\\\frac{-2}{5}=\frac{a}{3}\\\\-2(3)=a(5)\\\\-6=5a\\-6/5=a

so the value of a equals

a= -6/5
