Answer:

Each boy receive $3.75 and Each girl receive  $7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Thirty dollars is to be divided among three girls and two boys so that each of the girls receives twice as much as each of the boys.

To Find:  How much does each receive?

Solution :

Let each boy gets $x

Since we are given that each of the girls receives twice as much as each of the boys

So, each girl receive amount = 2x

Since there are 3 girls .

So, 3 girls received the amount = 3*(2x)=6x

Now each boy gets x amount

So, 2 boys get amount = 2*x =2x

Since thirty dollars are divided among them .

So, 6x+2x=30

8x=30

x=\frac{30}{8}

x=3.75

Thus each boy gets $3.75

Each girl receive amount = 2x = 2*3.75= $7.5

Hence Each boy receive $3.75 and Each girl receive  $7.5

Help help please please

✽ Hello there! ✽

4x+9<21  

Move all the constants (numbers) to the right, using the opposite                         operation:

4x<21-9

4x<12

Divide both sides by 4 to isolate x:

x<3

<h2>Therefore, x<3 ✔︎</h2>

Hope this helps!

Mrs. Cooper has $20 can she buy a museum tickets for 10 year old daughter a ticket for a self and a book that cost 3.99? Explain
Sladkaya [172]

No, because then she would have to pay 21 dollars  as a total and she only has 20.

Add adult plus Child,

5.75 + 11.25 = 17

add that to the book's price,

17+3.99= 2.99

it will exceed the budget by 99 cents.

Solve for x 73 =(9/10x)+19
Yuliya22 [10]
73=(\frac{9}{10}x)+19

To solve x:

1. Substract 19 in both sides of the equation:

\begin{gathered} 73-19=(\frac{9}{10}x)+19-19 \\  \\ 54=\frac{9}{10}x \end{gathered}

2. Multiply both sides of the ewuation by 10/9:

\begin{gathered} 54\cdot\frac{10}{9}=\frac{9}{10}x\cdot\frac{10}{9} \\  \\ \frac{540}{9}=x \\  \\ 60=x \end{gathered}<h2>Then, the value of x is 60 (x=60)</h2>
