Answer:

Faisal receives $241

Ahmed receives $482

Walid receives $723

Step-by-step explanation:

I am going to build a system of equations to solve this question.

We have that:

x is the amount that Faysal received.

y is the amount that Ahmed received.

z is the amount that Walid received.

Ahmed, Walid and Faisal made $1446 profit from selling used books.

This means that

x + y + z = 1446

Ahmed to receive double amount of Faisal

This means that y = 2x

Walid to receive triple amount of Faisal.

This means that z = 3x

So

x + 2x + 3x = 1446

6x = 1446

x = \frac{1446}{6}

x = 241

y = 2x = 2*241 = 482

z = 3x = 3*241 = 723

Faisal receives $241

Ahmed receives $482

Walid receives $723

Solve for (f+g)(5) if f(x)=6x+3 and g(x)=x-4 show you work please
Diano4ka-milaya [45]
There are two ways to do this.

The first way is to algebraically find (f+g)(x) first and plug in x = 5 later. Doing that method leads us to
(f+g)(x) = f(x) + g(x)
(f+g)(x) = 6x+3 + x-4
(f+g)(x) = 7x-1
(f+g)(5) = 7(5)-1
(f+g)(5) = 34

OR

you can compute f(5) and g(5) first, then add up those sub-results to get
f(x) = 6x+3
f(5) = 6(5)+3
f(5) = 33
g(x) = x-4
g(5) = 5-4
g(5) = 1
Adding up these results gives: (f+g)(5) = f(5) + g(5) = 33+1 = 34

Either way, the final answer is 34

126 = n × (n - 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

If Nikki's age is <em>n </em>and she is 5 years older than Jamie, then Jamie is 5 years younger than Nikki's <em>n </em>number of years.
