Add the the ratio 5:1

It will be 5+1=6

Remember that 6 is the total ratio equivalent to £50 and we only wanted to obtain Collins gain so you say

Collins is represented with the ratio 1 while Brian 5

If 6=£50 what about 1
1×£50/6 which you will give you £8.3

Answer:

£10

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide the amount Brian gets by 5 to find the value of one part of the ratio.

£50 ÷ 5 = £10 ← value of 1 part of the ratio

Colin gets 1 part of the ratio, that is £10

What is the solution set of these system5x-2y=17 and 4x-7=13?
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

x=5

y=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Let us solve for <em>x</em> using the 4x-7=13 equation by <u>isolating terms containing the variable</u>:

4x-7=13\\4x=20\\\fbox{x=5}

Great! <em>x</em> is 5... let's find <em>y</em>.

Step 2:

Since we know the value of <em>x</em>, we can use what we know to find <em>y</em> using the <u>other equation</u>:

5x-2y=17\\

<em>Given that x=5, we can </em><u><em>replace</em></u><em> x with 5</em>.

5*5-2y=17\\25-2y=17\\2y=8\\\\\fbox{y=4}

<em>I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions :)</em>
