37,5% of the inheritance belongs to three people

50% belongs to them if two of the people are disinherited

Each person’s share of the inheritance increase by 33¹/₃%

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Let's learn about the basic formula about Profit and Loss

\texttt{Profit = Selling Price - Cost Price}

\texttt{Selling Price = Cost Price ( 100\% + Profit\% )}

\texttt{Loss = Cost Price - Selling Price}

\texttt{Selling Price = Cost Price ( 100\% - Loss\% )}

Let us tackle the problem !

<em>If eight people share equally in an inheritance , then:</em>

\texttt{Percentage of the inheritance of each people} = 100\% \div 8

\texttt{Percentage of the inheritance of each people} = 12,5\%

\texttt{Percentage of the inheritance of 3 people} = 3 \times 12,5\%

\texttt{Percentage of the inheritance of 3 people} = 37,5\%

<em>If two of the people are disinherited , then:</em>

\texttt{Percentage of the inheritance of each people} = 100\% \div (8 - 2)

\texttt{Percentage of the inheritance of each people} = 100\% \div 6

\texttt{Percentage of the inheritance of each people} = \frac{50}{3}\%

\texttt{Percentage of the inheritance of 3 people} = 3 \times \frac{50}{3}\%

\texttt{Percentage of the inheritance of 3 people} = 50\%

<em>The percentage increase of each person’s share of the inheritance will be:</em>

\texttt{Percentage of Increase} = \frac{(50\% - 37,5\%)}{(37,5\%)} \times 100\%

\texttt{Percentage of Increase} = \frac{(12,5\%)}{(37,5\%)} \times 100\%

\texttt{Percentage of Increase} = \frac{1}{3} \times 100\%

\texttt{Percentage of Increase} = \frac{100}{3}\%

\texttt{Percentage of Increase} = 33\frac{1}{3}\%

Find the measure of each interior angle
arsen [322]

Answer:

∠J = 115

∠N  = 65

∠M = 50

∠K = 130

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of all the angles = 360

2x + 15 + x + 15 +x + 3x - 20 = 360

Combine like terms

2x + x + x + 3x + 15 + 15 - 20 = 360

               7x + 10 = 360

                      7x  = 360 - 10

                     7x = 350

                     x = 350/7

x = 50

∠J = 2x + 15 = 2*50 + 15 = 100+15 = 115

∠N = x +15 = 50 +15 = 65

∠M = x = 50

∠K = 3x - 20 = 3*50 - 20 = 150 - 20 = 130

If the circumference of a circle measures 3π cm, what is the area of the circle in terms of π?
g100num [7]

Answer:

the area of the circle is 2.25\pi\ cm^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

Circumference of a circle is 3π cm

Formula of circumference of a circle is given by :

C=2\pi r

r is radius of circle

r=\dfrac{C}{2\pi}\\\\r=\dfrac{3\pi }{2\pi}\\\\r=1.5\ cm

Area of a circle is given by :

A=\pi r^2\\\\A=\pi (1.5)^2\\\\A=2.25\pi\ cm^2

So, the area of the circle is 2.25\pi\ cm^2.

Christine went shopping and bought each of her eighteight nephews a​ gift, either a video costing​ $14.95 or a CD costing​ $16.8
pogonyaev
So I think you should set up an equation like this: 14.95x+16.88y=131.18 , x+y=8

so x=8-y, plug this into the original equation:
14.95(8-y)+16.88y=131.18
Evaluate: 119.60-14.95y+16.88y=131.18
Combine like terms: 119.60+1.93y=131.18
Subtract 119.60 from both sides. You get: 1.93y=11.58
Divide both sides by 1.93. You get y=6

Plug into second equation: x+y=8 ---> x+6=8 and solve for x. x=2

Christine bought 2 video games and 6 CDs. 14.95(2)+16.88(6)=131.18
