Mr.jeff divided his money in the ratio 4:2 between Jon and jack Jon got the smaller amount of $1,256 how much did jack get?

1 answer:

6 0

Ratio in which Mr.Jeff divided his money between Jack and Jon = 4:2
Let us assume the common ration to be = x
The amount of money that Jon got = $1256
Then
2x = 1256
x = 1256/2
= 628
Then
The amount of money that Jon got = 4 * 628 dollars
= 2512 dollars
So the amount that Jack got is $2512. As Jack got the major or the bigger share of the money, so the answer is correct. I hope the procedure for solving the question is also easy for you to understand.

Find the value of x.

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

$2\sqrt{77}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean theorem. $a^{2} +b^{2}=c^{2}$

a and b are the two side lengths

c is the hypotenuse (value across from the right angle)

Plug in the values that you are given.

$a^{2} +4^{2} =18^{2}$

Solve for x

$x^{2} =18^{2} -4^{2}$

$x^{2} =308$

x= $\sqrt{308}$

$x=2\sqrt{77}$

Suppose the band sells erasers for $2 per package and pencils for $5 per package. The band sells 220 packages in all and earns a

garik1379 [7]

Let e=erasers and p=pencils. So we know the total amount of erasers plus pencils sold is equal to 220. Therefore,

$e + p = 220$
We also know the cost of erasers and pencils totaled to $695 in earnings and so:

$2e + 5p = 695$
and so those are your two equations.
