Answer: £225

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Sarah's amount be represented by x.

Since Caroline gets three times as much as Sarah, Caroline will get: 3x

Bridget gets twice as much as Caroline, therefore Bridget will get: 2 × 3x = 6x

Sarah = x

Caroline = 3x

Bridget = 6x

Total = x + 3x + 6x = 10x

Caroline's faction is 3/10. We then multiply the fraction by £750. This will be:

= 3/10 × £750

= 0.3 × £750

= £225

Caroline will get £225

A contractor is building a fenced-in area at a daycare. The area will be rectangular with the length of its base equal to half t
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

The length of fencing will be 300\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Find the dimensions of the rectangle

we know that

The area of a rectangle is equal to

A=bh

In this problem we have

A=5,000\ ft^{2}

so

5,000=bh -----> equation A

b=\frac{h}{2} -----> equation B

Substitute equation B in equation A

5,000=(\frac{h}{2})h

10,000=h^{2}

square root both sides

h=100\ ft

Find the value of b

b=\frac{h}{2} -----> b=\frac{100}{2}=50\ ft

step 2

Find the length of fencing

The perimeter of a rectangle is equal to

P=2(b+h)

we have

h=100\ ft

b=50\ ft

substitute

P=2(50+100)=300\ ft

1. The ratio of the measures of the sides of a triangle is 5:6:8, and
julsineya [31]

Answer:

42mm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the shortest side of the triangle be 5x, the middle side be 6x, and the longest side be 8x.

5x+6x+8x = 159.6

19x = 159.6

x = 159.6 ÷ 19

x = 8.4

Shortest side of triangle (5x) = 8.4 × 5

                                               = 42

4. The fourth grade went on field trip to the art museum. There are 3 classes
miss Akunina [59]

Answer: They will need 3 total buses to fit all of the teachers and students.

Step-by-step explanation: If there are 14 students and 2 teachers with each class, that is a total of 16 people. Multiply 16 by 3 and you get 48 total people going on the field trip. Divide 48 by 20 and you get 2.4, which means two buses will be filled up to the max and they will need an extra bus to fit the rest. Hence, your answer: 3 total buses.
