Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for this is 3x + 5x + 4x = 600 where x is the same amount of money multiplied by the scalar value to ensure the money is divided in that ratio exactly. That gives us 12x = 600.
x = 50.
The largest value is 5(50) = 250 and
the smallest value is 3(50) = 150.
The difference between these is $100.
Answer:
C. 11x -2
Step-by-step explanation:
Distribute the 1/2 to 8x-4 which simplifies to 4x -2. Add that to 7x and the expression becomes 11x-2.
Let's put it into perspective.
x/(x+5)
If increase by 3:
(x+3)/(x+8) = 3/4
Cross multiply.
4(x+3)=3(x+8)
4x+12 =3x+24
Solve algebraically.
4x-3x = 24-12
x = 12
Therefore, original fraction is:
12/17
The answer to this question is 1
