Answer:

Eldest: $298500

Middle: $165250

Youngest: $149250

Explanation:

We can show the siblings like this:

e=2y                  (eldest)

m=16000+y       (middle)

To find the value of y, or the youngest sibling, we use an equation.

2y+16000+y+y=613000

Simplify:

4y+16000=613000

Subtract 16000 on both sides:

4y=597000

Divide both sides by 4:

y=149250

The youngest received $149250.

Knowing this, we can plug in the numbers into the original formulas:

e=2(149250)=298500                 ...or $298500

m=16000+149250=165250         ...or $165250

y=149250                                      ...or $149250

Add all those numbers up, and you reach $613000.

The graph of g is one-fifth as steep as the graph of f.

The function g basically takes the inputs for f and multiplies them by one-fifth, which means the outputs are one-fifth times those of f. Multiplying by one-fifth makes something smaller (it's the same as dividing by five). It helps to visualize this relationship, so I've attache the graphs below.
