£9.00 is shared between Amanda, Anita and Claire in the ratio of 8:5:2

2 answers:

7 0

Well, since the ratio is 8:5:2 you need 8 bits, then 5 bits then 2 bits. So 8+5+2=15, 9.00÷15=0.60, so 0.60=1 bit.
So for Amanda 0.60×8=4.80; for Anita 0.60×5=3.00 and for Claire 0.60×2=1.20
Amanda gets £4.80; Anita gets £3.00 and Claire gets £1.20.

To check your answer you add the money that was given to each individual together and if it equals the initial £9.00, then your answer is correct, you can also check this by seeing who has the most money, the person with the highest number should have the highest amount of money.

£9.00 is shared between Amanda, Anita and Claire in the ratio of 8:5:2
Amanda receives 9*(8/(8+5+2)) = 9*8/15 = £4.8
Anita receives 9*(5/(8+5+2)) = 9*5/15 = £3
Claire receives 9*(2/(8+5+2)) = 9*2/15 = £1.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply both by 100 (same number of 0s as the most decimals places in either of the starting numbers.)

so you get 8350/625

then it's normal from there

Michel started to drive from New York to Washington, DC, which is 120 miles away, at 7:00 AM. For the first hour and a half of h

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

30 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the distance travelled in the first 1h30m.

We can do that multiplying the speed by the time travelled, so we have:

Distance1 = 50 * 1.5 = 75 miles

If the total distance is 120 miles, Michael still needs to travel 120 - 75 = 45 miles.

And if the total time travelled is 3 hours (10 AM - 7 AM), the second part of the travel has a duration of 3h - 1.5h = 1.5h

So if the distance is 45 miles and the time is 1.5 hours, we can find the speed of the second part:

45 = speed * 1.5

speed = 45/1.5 = 30 mph

Answer:

Domain = (-5,1,3)

Range = ( -4,-2,0,2,4)

This is not a function

Step-by-step explanation:

Domain = (-5,1,3)

Range = ( -4,-2,0,2,4)

Since one x value gives two points for y

this is not a function

Carefully and accurately sketch the polynomial. Be sure to label all zeroes, the y-intercept, and any minima or maxima. Use your

dimulka [17.4K]

The graph of the polynomial function is represented in the attached diagram.

1) Zeroes:

P(x)=0 when

x=0;
x=2;
x=-3/2.

2) y-intercept:

when x=0, then

$P(0)=-0^2(0-2)(2\cdot 0+3)=0.$

Thus, y-intercept is at point (0,0).

3) Minima and maxima points:

minima - (0,0);
maxima - (-1.05,3.03) and (1.43,6.83)

Find the value <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%282x%290" id="TexFormula1" title="(2x)0" alt="(2x)0" align="absmiddle" cla

$\bf {(2x)}^{0} = 1$

The rule is that any number raised to the power of 0 equals to 1.

So if 2 or 1,000,000 is raised to the power of 0 it equals 1.

But 0 to the power 0 is undefined!

0 to any positive power is 0, so 0 to the power 0 should be 0. But any positive number to the power 0 is 1, so 0 to the power 0 should be 1. We can't have it both ways. Underlying this argument is the same idea as was used in the attempt to define 0 divided by 0.
