Answer:
The first partner will receive $52950, the second partner will receive $35300, the third partner will receive $88250.
Step-by-step explanation:
The profits in the business are to be shared by the three partners in the ratio of 3 to 2 to 5, in that order.
That is:
3 : 2 : 5
The profit for the year was $176,500.
To find the number of dollars that each partner, we have to first find the total ratio and then divide each of the ratios by the total ratio and multiply by the profit.
The total ratio is:
3 + 2 + 5 = 10
The first partner will receive 3/10 of the profits:
= $52950
The second partner will receive 2/10 of the profits:
= $35300
The third partner will receive 5/10 of the profits:
= $88250
The first partner will receive $52950, the second partner will receive $35300, the third partner will receive $88250.
Answer:
x = 4/15 and x= 10/3
Step-by-step explanation:
|9x-7|=|6x+3|
There are two solutions, one positive and one negative.
(9x-7)=6x+3 - (9x-7)=6x+3
We will take the positive one first
(9x-7)=6x+3
Subtract 6x from each side
(9x-6x-7)=6x-6x+3
3x -7=3
Add 7 to each side
3x-7+7 = 3+7
3x = 10
Divide by 3x/3 = 10/3
x = 10/3
Now we will take the negative solution
- (9x-7)=6x+3
Distribute the negative sign
-9x+7 = 6x+3
Add 9x to each side
-9x+9x+7 = 6x+9x+3
7 = 15x+3
Subtract 3 from each side
7-3 = 15x +3-3
4 = 15x
Divide by 15 on each side
4/15 =15x/15
4/15 =x
The slope of the line is 2. Why? Well, see below for an explanation!
The slope of a line is found by using the formula rise/run (rise over run). This means that by starting at the initial value of the y-intercept, 3, we would count how many units away we are from the next complete point. We do so by counting from left to right, and in this case, going up and then to the right. To get from the point (0, 3) to the point (1, 5), we would move two spaces vertically along the y-axis and one space horizontally along the x-axis. Because the slope of the line is found using the formula m = rise over run, the slope would be 2/1 because we went up 2 points and to the right one. When simplifying, we will find that 2 divided by 1 equals 2. Hence, our slope is 2.
Your final answer: The slope of the line is 2/1 or 2. If you need extra help, let me know and I will gladly assist you.

which means there is some integer

for which

.
Because

and

, there are integers

such that

and

, and

We have

, which means there are four possible choices of

:
1, 42
2, 21
3, 14
6, 7
which is to say there are also four corresponding choices for

:
9, 378
18, 189
27, 126
54, 63
whose sums are:
387
207
153
117
So the least possible value of

is 117.
