Answer: Paul gets £186

Step-by-step explanation:

Paul has 1/2 as much as Malachy, and Brian has 1/3 as much Paul, therefore Brian has 1/6 as much as Malachy.

1/2 * 1/3 = 1/6

So Malachy’s amount equals 1 in this equation, Paul’s amount equals 1/2 in this equation, and Brian’s amount equals 1/6 in this equation.

1 + 1/2 + 1/6 = 1 + 3/6 + 1/6 = 1 4/6

Now, divide 620 by 1 4/6 to find Malachy’s amount.

620/1 4/6 = 372

Now, divde 372 by 2 to get Paul’s amount.

372/2 = 186

Answer:

Δ MNO ≅ ΔXYZ by AAS postulate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

\angle M=\angle X, \angle N=\angle Y, and YO = NZ.

Consider YO = NZ

Add OZ on both sides

YO + OZ = NZ + OZ

YZ = NO

Consider triangles Δ MNO and ΔXYZ.

   Statement                                                 Reason

1. \angle M=\angle X                                            Given

2. \angle N=\angle Y                                           Given

3. YZ = NO                                            ∵ YO = NZ

Therefore, the two triangles Δ MNO and ΔXYZ are congruent to each other from AAS postulate as two corresponding angles and a corresponding side are equal to each other.

Find all real solutions of the equation. (if there is no real solution, enter no real solution.) 35x2 12x − 36
solmaris [256]
Important:  35x2 12x − 36 is not an equation; to obtain an equation, you must set <span>35x2 12x − 36 = to 0:

</span><span>35x^2 + 12x − 36 = 0.  Also, "the square of x" must be represented by "x^2," and you must insert either the + or the - sign in front of the term 12x.

I am assuming that you meant   </span>35x^2 + 12x − 36 = 0.

If that is indeed the case, then a = 35, b = 12 and c = -36

and the discriminant is b^2 - 4ac, or (12)^2 - 4(35)(-36) = 5184.

Since the discriminant is positive, this equation has 2 real, unequal solutions.  They are
        -12 plus or minus sqrt(5184)
x = -----------------------------------------
                         2(35)
