Answer:

The amounts of money each has are:

Joe = $92

Charlie = $29

Leila = $23

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we will convert the statements into an equation, and use that to solve for the unknowns, as follows:

total amount = $144

Let Leila's share be S

Joe's share = 4 times Leila's = 4S

Charlie's share = $6 + Leila's share = 6 + S

Joe's share + Charlie's Share + Leila's Share = $144

4S + (6 + S) + S = 144

4S + 6 + S + S = 144

4S + 2S + 6 = 144

6S + 6 = 144

6S = 144 - 6 = 138

S = 138 ÷ 6 = $23

Therefore Leila's share 'S' = $23

Joe share= 4S = 4 × 23 = $92

Charlie's share = 6 + 23 = $29

A diagram of a lot of land the scale on the diagram is 1 cm represents 2.5 yards what is the area of the actual lot of land
netineya [11]

In order to determine the area of the lot of land in squared yards, proceed as follow:

Convert the dimensions of the rectangle to yards, by using the given conversion factor:

\begin{gathered} 7\operatorname{cm}\cdot\frac{2.5yd}{1\operatorname{cm}}=17.5yd \\ 15\operatorname{cm}\cdot\frac{2.5yd}{1\operatorname{cm}}=37.5yd \end{gathered}

Next, consider that the area of the lot is the area of a rectangle. Replace the previous values of the length and the width of the rectangle:

A=(17.5yd)(37.5yd)=656.25yd^2

Hence, the area of the lot of land is 656.25 sq yd
