Answer:

$60

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the work done by Mary, John and Stacy be 3x,6x and 9x.

ATQ,

3x+6x+9x=360

18x = 360

x = 20

Mary's amount = 3x = 3(20) = $60

John's amount = 6x = 6(20) = $120

Stacy amount = 9x = 9(20) = $180

Difference in amont of Stacy and John = $180-$120 = $60

Hence, Stacy make $60 more than John's amount.

the total no of population=1650

13:17 first add the two numbers 13+17=30

then 13/30×y =715 , i make 13 at the numerator because it's males ratio

after that 30/13×13/30y =715 ×30/13

y =715×30/13

y =1650

after u find the total no it's simple to find the no of females

17/30×1650=935

What is the value of h?

storchak [24]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{h=5.488\ in}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of an area of a parallelogram:

$A=bh$

b - base

h - height

We have:

base₁ = 9.8 in

base₂ = 10 in

height₁ = 5.6 in

height₂ = h

The area of a parallelogram:

$A=b_1h_1$ and $A=b_2h_2$

Therefore we have the equation:

$b_2h_2=b_1h_1$

Substitute:

$10h=(9.8)(5.6)$

$10h=54.88$ <em>divide both sides by 10</em>

$h=5.488\ in$

Solve the system of linear equations by substitution

elena-s [515]

There is the equal values method, so you can do:

x-4 = 4x-10 (remove x from both sides)
-4 = 3x -10 (add ten to both sides)
6 = 3x (devide by 3x)
2 = x

Check: (by plugging it into the equation)
y = 2-4 and y = 8-10
y = -2 and y = -2
that's matches so it is correct...
YOUR ANSWER IS:
(2, -2)

I hoped I helped sort things out, and have a great day!
