on dividing $200 between A and B such that twice of A's share is less than 3 times than B's share by $20

Mathematics

Answer:

Share of A is $116 and Share of B is $84.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the share of A be x

Let the share of B be y

Given:

$200 is shared between A and B

So, x+y =\$200\ \ \ \ equation \ 1

Also given;

twice of A's share is less than 3 times than B's share by $20

2x= 3y -20\\2x-3y = -20 \ \ \ \ equation \ 2

Solution:

Now multiplying equation 1 by 3 we get,

3x+3y=600 \ \ \ \ equation \ 3

Now Adding equation 2 and equation 3 we get

(2x-3y = -20)+ (3x+3y=600)\\5x=580\\\\x=\frac{580}{5}=\$116

Now Substituting the value of x in equation 1 we get,

x+y=200\\116+y=200\\y=200-116 = \$84

Hence, Share of A is $116 and Share of B is $84.

<1 and <2 are supplementary angles. They add up to 180 degrees.

92 and <2 are corresponding angles, they have the same measure.

So,<2 = 92 degrees

180-92= 88 degrees

<1= 88 degrees

I hope this helps!

If a dart were thrown randomly at the dart board shown below, what is the
klemol [59]

Answer: A. 31%

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to find the area within each circle. This can be found by using the formula: pi * r^2

The area of the circle with radius 8mm is 64 * pi. The area of the circle with radius 14mm is 196 * pi.

196 * pi = 615.75216

64 * pi = 201.06193

Now divide the larger area by the smaller area to get how many times larger the large area is than the small area.

615.75216 / 201.06913 = 3.06239

3.06239 rounds up to 3.1

Now we know the radius of 14mm has an area 3.1 times the area of 8mm. The area of an 8mm radius has 31% of the area of a 14mm radius.

Answer: 1. 2nd endpoint  (24,-18)       2. 2nd endpoint: (-19,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

1.   \frac{-10+x}{2} = 7  x = 24

    \frac{6+y}{2} = -6    y= -18

2nd endpoint: (24,-18)

   

2.  \frac{-1+x}{2} = -10   x= -19  

   \frac{0+y}{2} =  2     y= 4

It looks like you want to find the short leg (x) of a right triangle with long leg 15 and hypotenuse 18. The Pythagorean theorem gives the relationship between the sides of a right triangle.
  18² = 15² + x²
  324 = 225 + x²
  x² = 324 - 225 = 99
  x = √99 ≈ 9.9

The appropriate choice is ...
  b) 9.9
