1 answer:
Strike441 [17]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

300

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the initial number. Initially, this number was 100%.

After an increase of 40%, it became 420 and 100% + 40% = 140% in percent.

So,

x - 100%

420 - 140%

Write a proportion:

\dfrac{x}{420}=\dfrac{100\%}{140\%}

Cross multiply:

140\cdot x=420\cdot 100\\ \\140x=42,000\\ \\14x=4,200\\ \\x=\dfrac{4,200}{14}=\dfrac{600}{2}=300

MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

Following are the solution to the given points:

Step-by-step explanation:

Ann=\$3,20,000\\\\Bob=\$4,40,000\\\\Carol=\$240,000\\\\Denis= \$4,00,000\\\\

Each player's offer divided by the total number of players calculates the fair share

Ann's fair share = \frac{\$320,000}{4} = \$80,000\\\\

Bob's fair share= \frac{\$440,000}{4} = \$110,000\\\\

 Carol's fair share = \frac{\$240,000}{4} = \$60,000\\\\

Denis's fair share = \frac{\$400,000}{4} = \$100,000\\\\

 Because Bob has the highest bid, that receives in the business.

Payments:

 Ann \$80,000 paid by estate

 Bob = \$440,000 - \$110,000 = \$330,000 owes estate

 Carol = \$60,000 paid by estate

 Denis = \$100,000 paid by estate  

Surplus = \$330,000 - (\$80,000+\$60,000+ \$100,000) = \$90,000  

Splitting the equally among the four players. therefore one of the each receives:

\frac{\$90,000}{4}= \$22,500

The final settlement of the Ann receives:

= \$80,000+ \$22,500 = \$102,500

rewona [7]

The complete question is:

Which statements describe the location of an earthquakes epicenter? Check all that apply.

1) it is measured by a seismograph

2) is is located using a single set of data

3) it is determined by the arrival times of s and p waves

4) it is determined by the arrival time of surface waves

5) it is located at the point where circles intersect on a map

Answer:

The answers are; 1, 3 and 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

A Seismograph is a combination of centimeters with a timing device and a recording device. It is used to locate and characterize earthquakes, and to study the Earth's internal structure.

Seismograph are not enough to locate the epicenter through Triangulization. The epicenter can also be extrapolated by using an extrapolation map that deduces the distance to epicenter using the difference in time between the arrival of the s and p waves of the earthquake.
