Answer:The girl will get $2,000, the mother $4,000 and the boy $8,000
Step-by-step explanation:
f the amount the girl gets = x
The mother gets twice as much as the girl = 2x
And the boy get twice as much as the mother = 4x
Overall
x + 2x + 4x = $14,000
7x = $14,000
Divide both sides by 7 so
x=$2,000
What’s the rest of the question
We want to find the values of a, b, c, and d such that the given matrix product is equal to a 2x2 identity matrix. We will solve a system of equations to find:
<h3>
Presenting the equation:</h3>
Basically, we want to solve:
![\left[\begin{array}{cc}-1&2\\a&1\end{array}\right]*\left[\begin{array}{cc}b&c\\1&d\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{cc}1&0\\0&1\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D-1%262%5C%5Ca%261%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%2A%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7Db%26c%5C%5C1%26d%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%3D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D1%260%5C%5C0%261%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
The matrix product will be:
![\left[\begin{array}{cc}-b + 2&-c + 2d\\a*b + 1&a*c + d\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D-b%20%2B%202%26-c%20%2B%202d%5C%5Ca%2Ab%20%2B%201%26a%2Ac%20%2B%20d%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Then we must have:
-b + 2 = 1
This means that:
b = 2 - 1 = 1
We also need to have:
a*b + 1 = 0
we know the value of b, so we just have:
a*1 + b = 0
Now the two remaining equations are:
-c + 2d = 0
a*c + d = 1
Replacing the value of a we get:
-c + 2d = 0
-c + d = 1
Isolating c in the first equation we get:
c = 2d
Replacing that in the other equation we get:
-(2d) + d = 1
-d = 1
Then:
c = 2d = 2*(-1) = -2
So the values are:

A is the answer for the question
Okay, so you know that the perimeter of the pen is 28 feet. Now we need the separate side lengths.
P = 28 ft.
Length = x
Width = (1/2)x + 2
So now we can plug in the little equations of length and width into a perimeter formula:
2(x) + 2((1/2)x + 2) = 28
Distribute the 2's and solve as needed.
2x + x + 4 = 28
3x + 4 = 28
3x = 24
x = 8
To find the width, just plug in 8 for x in our little equation:
(1/2)(8) + 2
= 6
So, the length is 8 feet and the width is 6 feet.
