Answer:

Nephew receive 1500.00

Older niece receive 1000.00

Younger niece receive 500.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Let assume a variable x,y,z for the niece, older niece and the nephew respectively.

Y= 2x (Twice the younger niece)

Z= x + y. (Sum of the two nieces)

Since y = 2x

Z = x+2x

Z= 3x

Therefore:

X = 1x

Y = 2x

Z = 3x

So the will will be shared among them in the ratio

Nephew : older niece : younger niece

3 : 2 : 1

Nephew. 3/6 x 3000 = 1500.00

Older niece 2/6 x 3000 = 1000.00

Younger niece 1/6 x 3000 = 500.00

FinnZ [79.3K]

____________________________________________________

Answer:

Your answer would be 3/7 or \frac{3}{7}

____________________________________________________

Step-by-step explanation:

In this type of question, we would need to find out the chances of getting something as an outcome, and that would be expressed as a fraction.

In order to find out the chance (or likeliness) of an outcome, we would need o use the information provided in the question.

Let's give you some key information that was given to us.

Key information:

4 animal characters

3 Human characters

With the information above, we can figure out what would be the probability of an outcome.

The question is saying "what is the probability of the computer picking a human character." That means that the amount of human characters would go on our numerator.

There's not only human characters, but there are 4 animal characters too, so that would be used to give us our total. the "4" will be added to our denominator.

Now, let's write it in a fraction.

Fraction: \frac{numerator}{denominator}

We know that we are trying to find the probability of getting a human character, so "3" would go on our numerator.

For our denominator, we would add up both numb ers since it would have to be the total amount of options in order to find the probability, and that would be "7" since 4 + 3 = 7.

When you put those into a fraction. Your FINAL answer would be:

3/7 or \frac{3}{7}

Write an equation for the amount of money, , that will be collected if boxes of chocolate bars are sold. Which is the independen
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let amount of money = C

If the number of chocolate bars sold = x

Let cost per chocolate bar = p, since cost per bar isn't stated

Amount of money that will be collected :

C(x) = P * x

The dependent variable is the Amount of money that will be collected as the amount of money depends on the number of chockate bars sold

The number of chocolate bars sold us the independent variable as it dictates the amout of money to be collected, hence it is the predictor variable.
