$240 was shared in the ratio of 2:3:1 by Jacob,
1 answer:
Answer:
Jacob: $80
Hilary: $120
Brian: $40
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the amount Brian gets be $x.
Amount Jacob gets= $(2x)
Amount Hilary gets= $(3x)
Total amount of money= $x +$(2x) +$(3x)= $(6x)
$240= $(6x)
6x= 240
x= 240÷6
x= 40
Now substitute the value of x to find out the amount of money each one gets.
Brian gets $40.
Amount Jacob gets= 2(40)= $80
Amount Hilary gets= 3(40)= $120

Answer:
<u>m</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u>2</u><u> </u><u>and</u><u> </u><u>c</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u>1</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
• Let's first phrase out the general equation of a line
- m is the slope
- c is the y-intercept
[ remember that a general line equation must be in slope - intercept form as shown above ]
• from our question, we are given the equation;
• let's make y the subject in order to make the equation in slope - intercept format.
→ <em>r</em><em>e</em><em>m</em><em>e</em><em>m</em><em>b</em><em>e</em><em>r</em><em> </em><em>t</em><em>o</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em>p</em><em>p</em><em>l</em><em>y</em><em> </em><em>"</em><em>s</em><em>u</em><em>b</em><em>j</em><em>e</em><em>c</em><em>t</em><em> </em><em>m</em><em>a</em><em>k</em><em>i</em><em>n</em><em>g</em><em> </em><em>k</em><em>n</em><em>o</em><em>w</em><em>l</em><em>e</em><em>d</em><em>g</em><em>e</em><em>"</em>
• The above boxed equation is now a general equation. Let's extract out slope, m and y-intercept, c
