Divide $210 in the ratio 2:5

1 answer:

8 0

Let us say Karen received X amount of money. Then Natasha has received (X+210).
The ratio that the money divided was 2:5.
X/(X+210) = 2/5
5X = 2(X+210)
3X = 420
X = 140
Total money shared
= X+(X+210)
= 140+140+210
= 490

So the total money shared was $490.

loris [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If two variables are directly proportional, it means that an increase in the value of one variable would cause a corresponding decrease in the other variable. Also, a decrease in the value of one variable would cause a corresponding increase in the other variable.

The time, t, required to drive a fixed distance varies inversely as the speed, r. By introducing a constant of variation, k(the fixed distance), the expression becomes

t = k/r

It takes 8 hr at a speed of 15 km/h to drive a fixed distance. It means that

8 = k/15

k = 8 × 15 = 120

The equation becomes

t = 120/r

Therefore, the time it will take to drive the same distance at a speed of 29 km/h is

t = 120/29 hours

Converting to minutes, it becomes

120/29 × 60

= 248. 28 minutes

248 minutes, 28 seconds

Write g(x) = 4x2 + 88x in vertex form. The function written in vertex form is g(x) = ___ (x +11)2 +____.

wel

$The\ vertex\ form:\\\\f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k$

$\text{Use}\ (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2\qquad(*)$

$g(x)=4x^2+88x=4(x^2+22x)=4(x^2+2\cdot x\cdot11)\\\\=4(\underbrace{x^2+2\cdot x\cdot11+11^2}_{(*)}-11^2)=4[(x+11)^2-121]=4(x+11)^2+(4)(-121)=4(x+11)^2-484$
