Let the amount B pays be £x
So,
A pays £125
B pays £x
They pay in the ration 3:2
Therefore,
125/x = 3/2
Cross multiplying we get,
125 x 2 = 3x
3x = 250
x = £63.33
Two tractor trailers would weigh 160,000 pounds, which is equal to 80 tons. 100-80= 20 tons that are still available.
we know that
The sum of the internal angles in the triangle must be 
degrees
see the attached figure with letters to better understand the problem
Step 
<u>Find the measure of the angle x</u>
In the triangle ABC
solve for x
therefore
<u>the answer Part a) is</u>
the measure of angle x is 
Step 
<u>Find the measure of the angle z</u>
we know that
--------> by supplementary angles
substitute the value of x
therefore
<u>the answer Part b) is</u>
the measure of angle z is 
Step 
<u>Find the measure of the angle y</u>
In the triangle ACD
solve for y
therefore
<u>the answer Part c) is</u>
the measure of angle y is 
Answer:
Decrease
Step-by-step explanation:
So, I encourage you to grab a calculator and see for yourself
Put in the function: 4/5 into a standard calculator. You will see that it will come out to .8
Put in the function: 3/5 into a standard calculator. You will see that it will come out to .6
.6 is less than .8, just as 3/5 is less than 4/5.
Another analogy that can be used is seeing the fraction as a real-life object.
Let's say that you make two pies. You cut the pie evenly into five slices. You set them on the table and leave them for whoever wants to eat them. You see that Pie 1 has two slices missing (3/5) and that Pie 2 has one slice missing. (4/5)
3 out of 5 slices are left of Pie 1.
4 out of 5 slices are left of Pie 2.
Pie 1 has less than Pie 2 does.
Hope this has helped!
