Answer:

To find how much money they shared first find the total parts

Which is

5 + 7 + 8 = 20

Deila's share is

5 /20 × £1600

= 1/4 × £1600 = £ 400

Edwin's share is

7/ 20 ×£1600 = £560

Freya's share is

8/20 × £1600

= 2/5 × £1600 = £640

Hope this helps you

Answer:

£ 40,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Freya receives 8 parts of the total amount

8 parts = £1600

this means, we can calculate 1 part:

8 parts = £1600

1 part =£1600/8 = £ 2000

Now, we are able to calculate the total share :

Total number of parts = 8 + 5 + 7 = 20

1 share = £2000

So, 20 shares = £40000

hope this helps,

Good Luck

Jake is using a horse trailer to take his horses to his new ranch. 1 Horse= 1,200 lb Trailer= 2,700 lb Jake's truck can tow a ma

Kitty [74]

Answer:

Jack can take only 1 horse on his trailer to be towed by the truck without going over the maximum weight the truck.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Weight of 1 horse = 1,200 lb

Weight of trailer = 2,700 lb

Jacks'truck can tow a maximum of 5000 pounds.

To find the maximum number of horses Jack can take in his trailer without going over the maximum weight his truck can tow.

Solution:

Let the maximum number of horses that Jack can take be = $x$

Using unitary method to find weight of $x$ horses.

If 1 horse weights = 1,200 lb

Then $x$ horses will weight in lbs = $1,200\times x = 1,200x$

Total weight of horses and trailer in lbs = $1200x+2700$

Since the maximum weight the truck can tow = 5,000 lb, so the inequality can be given as:

$1200x+2700\leq5000$

Subtracting both sides by 2700.

$1200x+2700-2700\leq5000-2700$

$1200x\leq2300$

Dividing both sides by 1200.

$\frac{1200x}{1200}\leq\frac{2300}{1200}$

$x\leq1.91$

From the inequality solution for $x$ , we can conclude that Jack can take only 1 horse on his trailer to be towed by the truck without going over the maximum weight the truck.

Find x and the measure of each side. Round to two decimal places, if necessary.

natta225 [31]

The values of the triangles are as follows:

x = 7 units
GH = 21 units
HI = 21 units
GI = 12 units

<h3>How to find angles and side of a triangle?</h3>

The triangle is an isosceles triangle because two sides and angles are equal. Therefore,

4x - 7 = 2x + 7

4x - 2x = 7 + 7

2x = 14

x = 14 / 2

x = 7 units

GH = 4(7) - 7 = 28 - 7 = 21

HI = 2(7) + 7 = 14 + 7 = 21

GI = 7 + 5 = 12

A brand new filled can of chicken broth is 10 cm tall and has a radius of 10 cm. Mishka uses some of the broth to cook and now t

Maurinko [17]

we have chicken broth in cylindrical can.

we have given the height radius of cylindrical can.

h=10cm r=10 cm .

and she have 6cm broth height in the tin that means she had used 4 cm of height of broth .

now we need to find volume of two cylinder with h=10 cm and 6cm

and we need to find the difference between the volumes .

volume1= $\pi *r*h_{1} =\pi *(10)^2*10=3.14*1000=3140 cm^3$

volume 2= $\pi *(10)^2*6=1884cm^3$

volume used =volume 1-volume2=3140-1884=1256cm^3 is used
