Answer:

£30

Step-by-step explanation:

6+1=7

35/7=5

5 X 6 = 30

5 X 1 = 5

1 : 6 = 5 : 30

so Ali has 30

Answer:

£30

Step-by-step explanation:

To tackle these 'sharing' ratios problems, first find the total amount parts in the ratio.

1 : 6 = 1 + 6 = 7 parts

Now divide the total amount of parts by the total amount of money shared

35 / 7 = 5

Now multiply the answer by the value that is appropriate.

In this case, they want you to work out how much Ali recieved.

Ali's value is 6

6 × 5 = £30

hope this helps :)

A drink is made by mixing pineapple juice , orange juice and line juice in the ratio 2:7:3 Sally makes 600ml of the drink

Tresset [83]

Sally has 600 ml of drink
Karen has 600 ml of lime juice

When it is mixed at a ratio of 2:7:3 . . .pineapple:orange:lime (respectively) . . this means . . . there are a total of 2 + 7 + 3 parts = 12 parts . . and each part individually is as follows:

pineapple = 2/12
orange = 7/12
lime = 3/12

Sally has 12 parts = 600 ml of drink
. . pineapple = 2/12*600ml = 100 ml pineapple
. . orange = 7/12*600ml = 350 ml orange
. . lime = 3/12*600ml = 150 ml lime

We know Karen has 600 ml of lime juice and if that is 3/12 of the total, then 600*12/3 = the total drink = 2400 ml of drink

Karen has 12 parts = 2400 ml of drink
. . pineapple = 2/12*2400ml = 400 ml pineapple
. . orange = 7/12*2400ml = 1400 ml orange
. . lime = 3/12*2400ml = 150 ml lime

Thus . . . (for Karen) . . .
A = 2400 ml of drink
B = 400 ml of orange juice
C = 1400 ml of pineapple juice

PLS HELP WILL BRAINLIEST 1. line goes through the points (9, 10) and (-3, 2). (a) What is the slope of the line? Show your work

djverab [1.8K]

1. line goes through the points (9, 10) and (-3, 2). (a) What is the slope of the line? Show your work

slope = (10 - 2)/(9 + 3)
slope = 8/12
slope = 2/3

2. Write the equation of the line in point-slope form.
Show your work

point-slope form. 
y - y1 = m(x - x1)

so equation
y - 2 = 2/3(x + 3)

3. Write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form.
Show your work.

slope = 2/3, passing thru (-3, 2)

y = mx + b
b = y - mx
b = 2 - (2/3)(-3)
b = 2 + 2
b = 4

equation
y = 2/3(x) + 4

Another question showed that 32 percent of the students worked throughout their undergraduate career.

87 percent of the students worked at least sometime during the college. Out of them 32% worked throughout the college.

Therefore, the students who worked sometime during their undergraduate career, but not throughout are:
