Answer: The intersection of the line through (0, 1) and (4.3, 2) and the line through (2.1, 3) and (5.3, 0) is (3.392, 1.789).

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the equation of a line that passes through two points (a,b) and (c,d) is given by :-

(y-b)=\dfrac{d-b}{c-a}(x-a)

Similarly , the equation of line that passes through (0, 1) and (4.3, 2)  would  be:

(y-1)=\dfrac{2-1}{4.3-0}(x-0)

(y-1)=\dfrac{1}{4.3-}(x)

4.3(y-1)=x

4.3y-4.3=x-----(1)

Equation of line that passes through (2.1, 3) and (5.3, 0) would  be:

(y-0)=\dfrac{3-0}{2.1-5.3}(x-5.3)

y=\dfrac{3(x-5.3)}{-3.2}-----(2)

To find the intersection point (x,y) , we substitute the value of y from (2)in (1) , we get

4.3(\dfrac{3(x-5.3)}{-3.2})-4.3=x

-4.03125(x-5.3)-4.3=x

-4.03125x+21.365625-4.3=x

-4.03125x+17.065625=x

x+4.03125x=17.065625

5.03125x=17.065625

x=\dfrac{17.065625}{5.03125}\approx3.392

Put value of x in (2) , we get

y=\dfrac{3(3.392-5.3)}{-3.2}

y=\dfrac{3(-1.908)}{-3.2}\approx1.789

Hence, the intersection of the line through (0, 1) and (4.3, 2) and the line through (2.1, 3) and (5.3, 0) is (3.392, 1.789).

Kim, Laura and Molly share £385
trapecia [35]
Set x equal to the amount of money Kim gets, and y for Molly's money.

 x = 2/5y, since the ratio is 2:5.
y = 105 + x, since Molly has 105 more pounds than Kim.

Substitute x into this equation, so that y = 105 + 2/5y. Subtract 2/5y from both sides to get 3/5y = 105. Divide each side by 0.6 (equivalent to 3/5) and you get y = 175, which is how much Molly has. Kim gets 2/5 of Molly's share (or 105 fewer pounds), so she has 70.

70 + 175 (Kim and Molly's shares) is equal to 245. Therefore, Laura receives the remaining 140 pounds.

140/385 = a/100
Cross multiply so that 385a is 14000. Divide by 385 to get 36.4 (rounded).

Thus, Laura receives about 36.4% of the total money. Hope this helps (:

You have two summer jobs. In the first job, you work 25 hours per week and earn $7.75 per hour. In the second job, you earn $6.2
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

3.4 Hours

Step-by-step explanation:

25 x $7.75 = $193.75

$250 - $193.75 = $21.25

$21.25/$6.25 = 3.4 hours

You must work 3.4 hours at the second job.
