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

One number is 1 more than 2 times another. Their product is 10. Find the numbers.
Taya2010 [7]
Whenever a problem says "one number" and "another number" we can substitute x and y. for this we have x=2y+1 and xy=1. since we know the value of x (2y+1) we can substitute it for the other equation to get (2y+1)y=10. simplify to get 2y^2+y=10. from here you can do a few methods to solve this, but the simplest in my opinion is by factoring. 

In order to factor it must be equal to 0, so we have 2y^2+y-10=0. We factor this and get y=5 (we also get y=-4 but it is an extraneous root). now we can plug that into either equation and find that x=2.

this means our two numbers are 5 and 2
