Liam, Sarah and Emily shared some money in the ratio 2:3:5. Liam got £30 less than Sarah.

1 answer:

8 0

The number representing Liam's share is 2; for Sarah's share, it is 3. The difference of those is 1, so each 1 unit of share must be £30, the difference between the amount Sarah got and the amount Liam got.

Emily got 5 shares or £30 × 5 = £150.

2 (3x+1)=17-3 (x-17)

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

$x = \frac{22}{3}$

<h3>alternative form:</h3>

$x = 7 \frac{1}{3} \: or \: x = 7.33333333333$

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

$2(3x + 1) = 17 - 3( x - 17) \\ distribute \\ \\ 6x + 2 = 17 - 3x + 51 \\ add \: 3x \: from \: both \: sides \\ \\ 9x + 2 = 17 + 51 \\ add \: 17 \: to \: 51 \\ \\ 9x + 2 = 68 \\ subtract \: 2 \: from \: both \: sides \\ \\ 9x = 66 \\ divide \: both \: sides \: by \: 9 \\ \\ x = \frac{22}{3}$
