Answer:
ghs 20,000
Step-by-step explanation:
If Boadu and ansah formed a company and agreed that their annual profit will be shared in the ratio of 4:5 respectively, the total ratio will be 4 + 5 = 9
Let Boadu share be x
Let ansah share be y
If at the end of the year ansah received ghs5,000 more than Boadu, then;
y = 5000 + x
Boadu share = 4/9 * (x+y)
x+y is the total amount shared
x = 4/9 * (x+y)
Substitute y = 5000 + x
9x = 4(x+y)
9x = 4x + 4y
9x - 4x = 4y
5x = 4y
5x = 4(5000+x)
5x = 20,000 + 4x
5x-4x = 20,000
x = 20,000
Hence Boadu share is ghs 20,000
A good way to find the answer to these questions is to find it algebraically. Let's call the first number 'n'.
n + (n + 2) + (n + 4) = 54
3n + 6 = 54
3n = 48
n = 16
Therefore the numbers are 16, 18, 20
Mikes repair shop $100 service charge plus $65 per hour Amys auto repair $40 service charge plus $80 per hour write an equation for each repair shop to represent the total cost of a car repair as a function of the number of hours worked let C = total cost to you let h = number of hours worked. Suppose you need to get the dent in your car repaired you see the ads above in the newspaper your father who knows a bit about cars said it would take no more than 3 hours for the repair person to fix your car how do you determine where you should take your car to get it repaired
-Mike Cost:: M(3) = 100 +65*3 = $295
-Amy Cost:: A(3) = 40 + 80*3 = $280
------------------------------------------------------------
-Mike charges 100 dollars service charge plus 65 dollars per hour.
-Amy charges 40 dollars service charge plus 80 dollars per hour.
-The cost to repair from mike is 100 + 65 * x.
-The cost to repair from amy is 40 + 80 * x.
------------------------------------------------------------
Let x = 3 and you get:
The cost to repair from mike is 100 + 65 * 3 = 295 dollars.
The cost to repaid from amy is 40 + 80 * 3 = 280 dollars.
As long as the time to repair is 3 hours or less, the cost to repair will be cheaper from Amy.
