Amanda, Sarah and Bethany share the cost of a holiday in the ratio 5 : 4 : 3.

Mathematics
1 answer:
sp2606 [1]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

a. £564

b. £141

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Firstly, we add up the ratios

= 5 + 4 + 3 = 12

Amanda’s share was 5

Let the total amount be £x

Thus; 5/12 * x = 235

5x = 12 * 235

x = 2820/5 = 564

The total cost of the holiday is £564

b. We want to calculate what Bethany paid

That would be 3/12 * 564 = £141

F + g = 23
f+g-g=23-g
f = 23-g
f + 2g =34
23-g+2g=34
23+g=34
23-23+g=34-23
g = 11

f + g = 23
f + 11 = 23
f +11-11 =23-11
f = 12

Check
f + 2g =34
12 + 2(11) =34
12 + 22 = 34
 34=34

She made 11 free throws and 12 field goals

The vertices of a triangle are A (2,5) B (1,2) and C (3,1) . Find the coordinates of the image after a dilation with respect to
telo118 [61]

K=2

  • A'=2(2.5)=(4,10)
  • B'=2(1,2)=(2,4)
  • C'=2(3,1)=(6,2)

Translation of 2 units left means change in x

  • A''=(4-2,10)=(2,10)
  • B"=(2-2,4)=(0,4)
  • C"=(6-2,2)=(4,2)

Translation of 1 units up means change in y

  • A'''=(2,10+1)=(2,11)
  • B'''=(0,4+1)=(0,5)
  • C'''=(4,2+1)=(4,3)
