Answer:

Ava's share = $20

Charlotte's share = $16

Step-by-step explanation:

15x + 12x = 36 : multiply each girl's age by same amount and adding gives $36

27x = 36 : add x terms

x = 36 / 27 : divide both sides of equation by 27

x = 4 / 3

Ava's share = 15x = 15 * 4/3 = 20

Charlotte's share = 12x = 12 * 4/3 = 16

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

¿Entre que números naturales consecutivos se encuentra cada raíz?

Bueno en este caso debes empezar por el 1 en adelante, pero solo sucede en números impares consecutivos. Solamente debes sumar 1,3,5,7,9,11,13,15,17,19 ..... en adelante, y en cada suma de cada sucesión encontraras un cuadrado. Ojo solo sumando en orden, tampoco sumarás 3+9, ya que te dará 12 y 12 No tiene raíz.

1+3=4,√4=2

4+5=9, √9=3

9+7=16, √16=4

16+9=25, √25=5

25+11=36, √36=6

36+13=49, √49=7

49+15=64, √64=8

64+17=81, √81=9

81+19=100, √100=10

............................................................................................................

A SI CONSECUTIVAMENTE SIEMPRE OBTENDRÁS CADA RAÍZ  

¿Entre que números naturales consecutivos se encuentra cada raíz?

R= En los número impares consecutivos, comenzando por el 1 en adelante.
