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.
√m/3 = 4
To remove the radical sign, square both sides.
(√m/3)² = 4²
m/3 = 16
To remove the denominator of 3, multiply both sides by 3.
3 (m/3) = 3(16)
m = 48
To check: Substitute m by its value.
√m/3 = 4
√48/3 = 4
√16 = 4
4 = 4

Solution:
Given of what number is .
Let us first convert the mixed fraction into improper fraction.
Now, let us take the unknown number be x.
Do the cross multiplication.
Now, again change the improper fraction into mixed fraction.
Hence of is .
Answer:
By applying Pythagoras theorem
Answer is √[109] inch
Answer: 25 and 22
Step-by-step explanation:
Since one number is 3 bigger than the other, we can call them x, and x-3.
Then we know that the sum of 3 times x and 2 times (x-3) is equal to 19, so we can make the equation
3x+2(x-3)=19
Simplifying would get you
3x+2x-6=19
adding the x's and adding six to both sides of the equations gets you
5x = 25
divide by 5 and
x=5
Put those numbers back into your previous labels for them, x and x-3, and you get 5 and 2
Hope this helps
