Answer:
C. 52.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The total from W(-20) to Z(120) is 140.
You can add up all of the numbers in the ratio, 2:3:3, to get 8
Divide 140 by 8 to get 17.5
Multiply 17.5 times the number in the ratio for each segment, so the new ratio would be 35 : 52.5 : 52.5
Since you are trying to find segment XY, which was the 2nd number in the ratio, you would get your answer as 52.5

Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
You solve a linear equation by putting the variable on one side of the equal sign and a constant on the other side. Here, variables and constants are on both sides of the equal sign, so you need to separate them.
The basic idea is that you add the opposite of any term you don't want. Whenever you perform any operation (like "add"), <em>you must do it to both sides of the equation</em>.
We observe that x-terms have coefficients of 10 and 9. We choose to add the opposite of 9x to both sides:
10 -9x -5 = 9x -9x +2
x -5 = 2 . . . . simplify
Now, we still have -5 on the left, where we don't want it. So, we add its opposite (+5) to both sides:
x -5 +5 = 2 +5
x = 7 . . . . simplify
The solution is x = 7.

<em>Additional comment</em>
If we were to end up with an x-coefficient other than 1, we would divide both sides of the equation by that coefficient. This will leave the x-term with a coefficient of 1.
Answer:
A. 5x+6
Step-by-step explanation:
-
(9x-18)+8x
-3x+6+8x (multiply across the -1/3)
5x+6 (combine 8x and -3x)
A) Change in profit for each owner = -780/8
B) Change in profit for each owner = -$130
The total loss = $780
Number of owners = 6
The 6 owners must share the loss equally
The change in profit for each owner will be the original profit less 780/6
That is -780/6
Evaluating -780/6
Change in profit for each owner = -$130
