Hi,
Essentially, we are saying that Alyssa gets 5 parts of the whole thing (140,000), Bart gets 3 parts of the whole and Meghan gets 2 parts of the whole. The sum total of their parts = the whole. So now we need to find out how much one part is. Thus,"one part" should be the variable. Substitute p for "one part", so Alyssa gets 5p, Bart gets 3p, and Meghan gets 2p. Since the sum of the parts = the whole, your problem sets up as: 5p + 3p + 2p = 140,000 --> 10p = 140,000 --> 10p/10 = 140,000/10 --> x = 14,000.
Alyssa gets 5p or (5 x 14,000)
Bart gets 3p or (3 x 14,000)
Meghan gets 2p or (2 x 14,000)
If the whole was a loss, it would be a negative, and instead of getting money, they would lose money.
9:45 plus 3 hours goes to 12:45 pm. add 45 minutes you get 1:30PM as your answet
Answer:
84
Step-by-step explanation:
they are all equal sides so what you'd do is 28+28+28= 84
Answer:
25
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+2+5x+3=180 (angles on a straight line)
7x+5=180
7x=180-5
7x=175
x=25 (dividing both sides by 7)
X/7 = 6/4.2
4.2x = 42
x= 10
