Answer:

161 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two ways to do this

ratio is 2:5

Amanda : Wim

from the ratio we know that the whole is 2+5 = 7 parts

so Amanda gets 2/7 parts and Wim gets 5/7 parts

Wim gets 115 which means that his part is equal to that amount of money

5/7 = 115

so we can find for all of the parts in two different ways.

1. Either we find Amanda's part and add it to Wim's part to find the total like this:

If 5/7 = 115 then

1/7 = 115/5

= 23

Amanda's part = 2/7

2/7 = 23×2

= 46 pounds

total = 115 pounds + 46 pounds

= 161 pounds altogether

OR

2. Just find the whole:

If 5/7 = 115

then 1/7 = 115/5

=23

and 7/7 (which is the whole) = 23×7

= 161 pounds altogether

Hope that helps

Solve by completing the square:<br> x^2 + 3x - 9 = 0
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 3x - 9 =0

By comparing with the equation ax^2+bx+c = 0,

we get,

a = 1, b=3, c = -9

we know the formula for x is,

x = (-b±√(b^2 - 4ac))/2a

x = (-3±√45)/2

x = (-3±3√5)/2

x = (-3+3√5)/2, (-3-3√5)/2

Answer:

  • 6912xy^8

Step-by-step explanation:

The 9th term is the next-to-last term, where the left term of the binomial is raised to the first power, the right term of the binomial is raised to the 8th power (9-1=8), and the multiplier is 9C8 = 9!/(8!·1!) = 9. This product is ...

  9·(3x)^1·(-2y)^8 = 6912xy^8
