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

Find the area of the figure.
Otrada [13]

Answer:

20 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure shows a triangle whose;

  • Base AC is 8 units
  • Height is 5 units

We are supposed to get its area;

Area of a triangle is given by the formula;

Area = 0.5×b×h

Thus;

Area = 0.5 × 8 units × 5 units

        = 20 square units

Hence, the area of the figure is 20 square units

- x - x + 11 - 2x = 83<br>please show step by step!!​
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

x=-18

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>

<u />-x-x+11-2x=83

<u>Step 1: Combine Like Terms on LHS</u>

<u />-x-x+11-2x=83\\-2x+11-2x=83\\-4x+11=83

<u>Step 2: Subtract 11 on both sides</u>

<u />-4x+11=83\\-4x+11-11=83-11\\-4x=72

<u>Step 3: Divide both sides by -4 to isolate the x-variable</u>

<u />-4x=72\\\\\frac{-4x}{-4}=\frac{72}{-4}\\ \\ x=-18

<u>Final Answer</u>

<u />x=-18
