The next received 2/3 of the remainder.
That means the youngest received 1/3 of the remainder.
That one third was $6.
If 1/3 = $6, then 2/3= $12
the total money the two younger received $18

The oldest received 7/13
the other two then received 6/13
so 6/13 = $18
18/6 = 3
1/13 = $3
3 * 13 = $39

sweet [91]

Answer:

f(3) = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

f(1) = 1

   

f(2) = 2

f(n) = f(n − 2) + f(n − 1)

f(3) = f(3 - 2) + f(3 - 1)

     = f(1) + f(2) = 1 + 2 = 3

Special Note:  Have you heard of the Fibonacci sequence?  

The formula f(n) = f(n − 2) + f(n − 1) is used to find the terms of the of the  Fibonacci sequence

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

Follows are the solution to this question:

Step-by-step explanation:

Following are the differential equation:

\to P(C,S)t+1 = P(C,S)t+(- 0.06Ct +0.04St, 0.06Ct - 0.04St ) \ \ \ \\\\or \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \\\\ \to (0.94Ct + 0.04St, 0.96St + 0.06Ct)

In equation:

\to t = 0, \ as \ 2019\\\\\to Ct = 10,000,000  \\\\\to St = 800,000,000\\

\to P(C, S)1 = (0.94Ct + 0.04St, 0.96St + 0.06Ct) \\\\

                   = (0.94(10000000) + 0.04(800000), 0.96(800000) + 0.06(10000000))\\\\ = (9,400,000 + 32,000), (768,000 +6000000))\\\\ = (9432000, 1368000)

\to P(C, S)2 = (0.94(9432000) + 0.04(1368000), 0.96(1368000) + 0.06(9432000))

                  =(8,866,080 + 54,720), (1,313,280 + 565,920)\\\\=(8,920,800, 1,879,200)

What is the solution of the inequality -6x-17≥8x+25
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
-6x -17> 8x + 25.
Get x on one side; Subtract 8x from both sides.
-14x -17 > 25.
Add 17 to both sides to get x by itself.
-14x>42.
Divide both sides by -14 (remember to flip the inequality when dividing by negatives).
x <_ 3 is your solution (line under the inequality).
I hope this helps!

5. The measure of an intercepted arc is 86, and the measure of the inscribed angle creating the intercepted arc is 3x +
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

Th correct option is D. 13

Therefore the value of x is 13.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

measure of an intercepted arc = 86°

Center Angle = 86°

measure of the inscribed angle creating the intercepted arc= (3x+4)°

Angle Inscribed in arc = (3x+4)°

To Find:

value of x = ?

Solution:

Inscribed Angle Theorem:

The inscribed angle theorem states that an angle θ inscribed in a circle is half of the central angle 2θ that subtends the same arc on the circle.

\textrm{Angle Inscribed in arc}=\dfrac{1}{2}\textrm{Center Angle}

Substituting the values we get

3x+4=\dfrac{1}{2}86=43\\\\3x=39\\\\x=\dfrac{39}{3}=13\\\\x=13

Therefore the value of x is 13.
