Answer:
3500 tons
Step-by-step explanation:
The Greenpoint factory produced 2/5 of the bricks that the Consolidate Brick Company produced in 1991.
Let the amount of bricks produced by the Greenpoint factory be g and the amount of bricks produced by the Consolidated brick company be c.
Therefore:
g = 2/5 * c = 2c/5
That year, the Greenpoint factory produced 1400 tons of bricks. This implies that:
1400 = 2c/5
To find the amount that the Consolidated Brick Company produced, solve for c:
1400 = 2c/5
1400 * 5 = 2c
7000 = 2c
c = 7000 / 2 = 3500 tons
The Consolidated Brick Company had a total production output of 3500 tons in 1991.
Answer:
60°
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of angles in a triangle is 180°.
∠R + 88° + 32° = 180°
∠R = 60° . . . . . . subtract 120° from both sides of the equation
Answer:
£2112
Step-by-step explanation:
To find Gavin's share, sum the parts of the ratio, 4 + 1 = 5 parts
Divide the win by 5 to find the value of one part of the ratio.
£8800 ÷ 5 = £1760 ← value of 1 part of ratio, thus
4 parts = 4 × £1760 = £7040 ← Gavin's share
Now repeat the process with the ratio for his family
1 + 6 + 3 = 10 parts
£7040 ÷ 10 = £704 ← value of 1 part of the ratio, thus
6 × £704 = £4224 ← wife's share
3 × £704 = £2112 ← son's share
Difference = £4224 - £2112 = £2112
Thus his wife gets £2112 more than the son
Answer:
a = p * q
b = p * s + q * r
c = r * s
Step-by-step explanation:
In the trinomial ax² + bx + c
a is the coefficient of x²
b is the coefficient of x
c is the numerical term
∵ The trinomial is ax² + bx + c
∵ Its factors are (px + r) and (qx + s)
∴ ax² + bx + c = (px + r)(qx + s)
∵ (px + r)(qx + s) = (px)(qx) + (px)(s) + r(qx) + (r)(s)
∴ (px + r)(qx + s) = pqx² + (psx + qrx) + rs
∴ ax² + bx + c = pqx² + (ps + qr)x + rs
→ By comparing the two sides
∵ ax² = pqx² ⇒ divide both sides by x²
∴ a = pq
∵ bx = (ps + qr)x ⇒ Divide both sides by x
∴ b = ps + qr
∴ c = rs
∴ a = p * q
∴ b = p * s + q * r
∴ c = r * s
