Given:
A sum of money is divided between A,B and C in the ratio 9:8:7.
Total sum is 480.
To find:
The part of money A get.
Solution:
Let A, B and C get 9x, 8x and 7x respectively.
Total sum is 480.
Divide both sides by 24.
Now,
Therefore, amount received by A is 180.
Step-by-step explanation:
9x² + 6 = 12x
3x² + 2 = 4x
3x² − 4x + 2 = 0
Use quadratic formula.
x = [ -b ± √(b² − 4ac) ] / 2a
x = [ -(-4) ± √((-4)² − 4(3)(2)) ] / 2(3)
x = [ 4 ± √(16 − 24) ] / 6
x = [ 4 ± √(-8) ] / 6
x = (4 ± 2i√2) / 6
x = (2 ± i√2) / 3
For this kind of questions, what you can do is to find a point on the figure and see what translations it does.
For example, you can find the point (4,2) on the figure H. And then look at each choices to see if the statement is correct.
For this question, the answer is B. The point (4,2) finally change to the (4,-8) on the figure H'. It has a vertical translation of 10 units down.
