Simple!
Okay first plug in the variables given to you.
4(4+8)-4=? Now lets solve.
First, in order to get rid of the paranthesis, multiply 4 by the numbers inside, which in this case are 4 and 8.
That will give us...
16+32-4. Now, remember PEMDAS?
Addition (A) comes before subtraction (S).
So lets add 16 and 32.
Thats 48.
Now 48-4= 44.
44 is our final answer (: so C

In similar figures, the ratio between corresponding sides are the same.

$\frac{25}{35}=\frac{35}{49}$

Simplify the two to see that they are equal.
The top and bottom of the left fraction are divisible by 5.
The top and bottom of the right fraction are divisible by 7.

$\frac{5}7=\frac{5}7$

Of course, the dimensions of that third picture would have to be this fraction.
Let's test these answers.

$\frac{5}6\neq\frac{5}7$ ⇒ A is not a solution

$\frac{30}{42}=\frac{5}7$ ⇒ B is the solution
(divide the top and bottom by 6)

Ivan and Tanya share £150 in the ratio 4: 1 Work out how much more Ivan gets compared to Tanya.

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

Ivan got £90 more than Tanya.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ivan and Tanya share the amount £150 in the ratio of 4 : 1

Amount received by Ivan = $150\times \frac{4}{(4+1)}$

= $150\times \frac{4}{5}$

= £120

Similarly, amount received by Tanya = $150\times \frac{1}{(4+1)}$

= £30

Difference in their amounts = 120 - 30

= £90

Therefore, Ivan got £90 more than Tanya.

Find the gradient of the line 2y - 8x = -2

natima [27]

answer:

gradient is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

gradient is another way of saying slope

slope in the math is often used to show the speed of something

it's the m in y= mx+b

make the equation look like

y = mx + b

2y - 8x = -2

2y = 8x - 2

y= (8x-2)/2

y=4x-1

gradient is the number next to x

answer : gradient is 4
