Answer:

$4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let amount from Maria be x

Maggie receives 1/5 x hence remainder is x-1/5 x=4/5x

Journi receives 3/8 of 4/5x=3/8 *4/5x=3/10x

Total by Maggie and Journi is 1/5x +3/10x=1/2x

Remainder is x-1/2x=1/2x

If Terrence receives the rest which is 1/2x to represent $10 then x=$10*2=$20

Amount Maggie receives is 1/5*$20=$4

frozen [14]

Answer:

(2,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

y=-4x+6

y=3x-8

plug the y's in for each other to get:

-4x+6=3x-8   <----- solve from there

+8            +8

-4x+14=3x

+4x         +4x

14=7x

/7     /7

x=2

now plug the x in to get y (in any problem)

y=3(2)-8

y=6-8

y=-2

Space Shuttle Marion is observing the launch of a space
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Using the slope concept, it is found that the shuttle traveled 3.2 miles while Marion was watching.

<h3>What is a slope?</h3>

The slope is given by the <u>vertical change divided by the horizontal change</u>, and it's also the tangent of the angle of depression.

Initially, the angle of elevation is of 16º, with an elevation of 1 mi, hence:

\tan{16^\circ} = \frac{1}{x_1}

x_1 = \frac{1}{\tan{16^\circ}}

x_1 = 3.5

Then, at the end, the angle will be of 74º, with the elevation remaining constant, hence:

\tan{74^\circ} = \frac{1}{x_2}

x_2 = \frac{1}{\tan{74^\circ}}

x_2 = 0.3

The distance is:

d = x_1 - x_2 = 3.5 - 0.3 = 3.2

The shuttle traveled 3.2 miles while Marion was watching.
