Answer:
Terry initially had £390
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the original amount is 3:7
Let the original amount Terry has be t and the original amount Faye has be f
3/7 = t/f
or simply 3f = 7t ••••••(i)
Terry putting 220 means he now has
t + 220
Faye withdrew 300
He now has f-300
These values are equal
t + 220 = f-300
f = t+220+300
f = t + 520 ••••••(ii)
Put ii into i
3(t + 520) = 7t
3t + 1560 = 7t
7t-3t = 1560
4t = 1560
t = 1560/4
t = 390
The commutative property of multiplication states that the numbers can be multiplied in any order.
a+b = b+a : Commutative property of addition
a*b = b*a : Commutative property of multiplication
a+0=a : Additive identity property
a*1 =a : Multiplicative identity property
Answer : a*b =b*a
1 mile = 5,280 feet.
Convert the 0.25 mile to feet:
0.25 miles = 0.25 x 5,280 = 1,320 feet.
Add the soda shop distance to this:
1,320 + 900 = 2,220 feet.
Total distance is 3 miles and 2,220 feet
Answer: x = 13/5
Explanation:
(x+4)/(3x+1) = 3/4
Cross multiply:
4(x+4) = 3(3x+1)
4x + 16 = 9x + 3
4x - 9x = 3 - 16
-5x = -13
x = -13/-5
x = 13/5
