Answer:

Mr. Lim will have $2500

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The total amount of money which Mr. Lim, Mr. Tan and Mr. Chan is $8650;

Mr. Lim has $450 more than what Mr. Tan has;

Mr. Chan has double the amount of money than what Mr. Tan has.

Therefore, if we assume that the amount of money Mr. Tan has as x, then...

Total money = Mr. Tan + Mr. Lim + Mr. Chan

therefore,

8650 = x + (x + 450) + 2x

8650 = <u>x + 2x + x</u> + 450

8650 = 4x <u>+ 450</u>

8650 - 450 = 4x

8200 = <u>4</u>x

8200/4 = x

2050 = x

As we assumed earlier, x will be equal to the amount of money Mr. Tan has and the question is asking us how much money Mr. Lim has. To find this out, you have to add $450 to the amount of money Mr. Tan has which is $2050. This is because the question also gives us that Mr. Lim has $450 more that Mr. Tan.

I hope this helped you :)

PLZ HLP Given the equation 5x + y = 7, which equation below would cause a consistent-independent system?
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

the equation D ) would cause a consistent-independent system.

Step-by-step explanation:

A ) 5 x + y = 7  /*( -2 )

    10 x + 2 y = 14

    --------------------

    - 10 x - 2 y = - 14

      10 x + 2 y = 14

   ------------------------

       0 x = 0  ( Dependent system )

B ) 5 x + y = 7  / *  3

    - 15 x - 3 y = - 6

    --------------------------

    15 x + 3 y  = 21

    - 15 x - 3 y = - 6

  -------------------------

        0 x = 15 ( Inconsistent system )

C )   5 x + y = 7

       5 x + y = - 7  / * ( - 1 )

       ---------------------------

       5 x + y = 7

      - 5 x - y = 7

    ------------------

        0 x = 14  ( Inconsistent system )

D ) 5 x + y = 7  / * ( - 2 )

     6 x + 2 y = 7

     ------------------

      - 10 x - 2 y = - 14

        6 x   + 2 y = 7

      -----------------------

       - 4 x = - 7;     x = 7/4;   y = - 7/4

Answer

Find out the how long did they rest in 8 hours.

To prove

As given

contestants in a dance-a-thon rest for the same amount of time every hour.

A couple rests for 25 minutes in 5 hours .

As

25 mintues = 5 hours

1\ hours = \frac{25}{5}\ mintues

1 hours = 5 mintues

Thus in 1hours a the dance -a-thon rest for 5 mintues.

Now for 8 hours.
