Answer: 45

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the ratio of their share is 2 : 1 , Let Sarah's share be x , then Caroline's share will be 2x.

Since Caroline gets 45 more than Sarah , then

2x = x + 45 ,

2x - x = 45

x = 45

This means that Sarah's share is 45 and Caroline's share will be 90

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

ratio of 2:1....total of 3....so caroline gets 2/3 of the money and sarah gets 1/3 of the money. Let the total amount of money be x.

so caroline = 2/3x and sarah = 1/3x

caroline gets 45 more then sarah

2/3x = 1/3x + 45

2/3x - 1/3x = 45

1/3x = 45

x = 45 * 3

x = 135.....so the total money is $ 135

caroline gets 2/3 of it.......2/3(135) = 270/3 = $ 90

sarah gets 1/3 of it......1/3(135) = 135/3 = $ 45 <===

Written as a simplified polynomial in standard form, what is the result when
o-na [289]

Answer:

9x^2 - 10x -4

Step-by-step explanation:

It is set up like this

     9x^2 - 8x

-              (x-2)2

First solve (x-2)2

the answer is (2x-4)

so now you can do this instead

    9x^2 - 8x

-              2x - 4

----------------------------------

9x^2 - 10x +4

9x^2 minus zero is 9x^2

-8x-2x is -10x

0- -4 is 4 because that is like saying 0 + 4 because double negatives equal a positive

A simpler way is to change all the numbers to the opposite sign and then change the minus to a plus

like this

    9x^2 - 8x

+              -2x + 4

----------------------------------

9x^2 - 10x +4

4/5 + 3/4 =
marshall27 [118]

The topics you should learn are equating denominators and fractions. This is summing up simple fractions.

So we have to make denominators' numbers the same in order to sum up them all (we can sum fractions if the denominators are the same) , and we did it by cross product (that thing on the picture)

Equating by lcm (least common multiple) is the easiest way, because you might see bigger numbers on other questions, and cross product will bring much bigger numbers, so this technic might confuse you.

By the way lcm of 4 and 5 is already 20

Hope it helps!
