*Given
Money of Phoebe - 3 times as much as Andy
Money of Andy - 2 times as much as Polly
Total money of Phoebe, - £270
Andy and Polly
*Solution
Let
B - Phoebe's money
A - Andy's money
L - Polly's money
1. The money of the Phoebe, Andy, and Polly, when added together would total £270. Thus,
B + A + L = £270 (EQUATION 1)
2. Phoebe has three times as much money as Andy and this is expressed as
B = 3A
3. Andy has twice as much money as Polly and this is expressed as
A = 2L (EQUATION 2)
4. This means that Phoebe has ____ as much money as Polly,
B = 3A
B = 3 x (2L)
B = 6L (EQUATION 3)
This step allows us to eliminate the variables B and A in EQUATION 1 by expressing the equation in terms of Polly's money only.
5. Substituting B with 6L, and A with 2L, EQUATION 1 becomes,
6L + 2L + L = £270
9L = £270
L = £30
So, Polly has £30.
6. Substituting L into EQUATIONS 2 and 3 would give us the values for Andy's money and Phoebe's money, respectively.
A = 2L
A = 2(£30)
A = £60
Andy has £60
B = 6L
B = 6(£30)
B = £180
Phoebe has £180
Therefore, Polly's money is £30, Andy's is £60, and Phoebe's is £180.
Answer:
B. 14 = 125p
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter (P) of a rectangle is calculated as
P = 2l + 2w ( l is the length and w the width )
perimeter of rectangle A = 2(7) + 2(5) = 14 + 10 = 24 in
perimeter of rectangle B = 2(4x - 3) + 2x = 8x - 6 + 2x = 10x - 6 in
Equating the two gives
10x - 6 = 24 ( add 6 to both sides )
10x = 30 ( divide both sides by 10 )
x = 3
Thus
length of rectangle B = 4x - 3 = 4(3) - 3 = 12 - 3 = 9 in
Width of rectangle B = x = 3 in
Thats the answer p=0
y=2.×-1
Step-by-step explanation:
A(-5,1) and B(0,4)
X1=0 , Y1=4 X2= -5 , Y2=1
y - 4 = ⅗(x-0) ==> y - 4 = ⅗ X ==> y = ⅗ X + 4
<u>C</u> is the answer
