Answers:
- Total amount of money = 220 dollars
- Amount Farah gets = 100 dollars
==========================================================
Explanation:
- F = amount Farah gets
- S = amount Shaiyara gets
- Z = amount Zahin gets
The money is divided in the ratio 10:7:5
This means that
for some positive real number x.
Since Shaiyara gets $20 more than Zahin, we can say,
S = Z+20
Let's plug in S = 7x and Z = 5x and solve for x
S = Z+20
7x = 5x+20
7x-5x = 20
2x = 20
x = 20/2
x = 10
Therefore,
- F = 10x = 10*10 = 100
- S = 7x = 7*10 = 70
- Z = 5x = 5*10 = 50
The ratio F:S:Z becomes 100:70:50 which reduces fully to 10:7:5 after dividing all three parts by the GCF 10.
The total sum of money shared is 100+70+50 = 220 dollars and Farah gets $100 of that total.
Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
move all terms to the left:
-1.5x+12-(2.5x-12)=0
get rid of parentheses
-1.5x-2.5x+12+12=0
add all the numbers together, and all the variable.
-4x+24=0
move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right
-4x=-24
x=-24/-4 - divide
x=+6
C, always go with supervisors
3 divided by 1/8 = <em>24 and 0/8</em>
Answer:
