Answer:

60000

Step-by-step explanation:

You should treat the first son with the 1 ratio as x. Because of this, the second son would be 3x and the third would be 6x. All of them need to equal 120000 so 10x=120000. Next you isolate the and x= 12000. Fill in 1200 for x and the first son gets 12000, the second gets 36000, and the third gets 72000. Lastly you subtract and you get 60000.

GEOMETRY: PLEASE HELP!!
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

GF=72

Step-by-step explanation:

All triangles in the given figure are similar, from SAS. Notice that marked in the diagram, CD=DE=EF=FA.

For triangle \triangle CGF was base GF, leg CF contains three of these marked segments. In triangle \triangle CHE with base HE, leg CE has two of these marked segments. By definition, similar polygons have corresponding sides in a constant proportion. Therefore, the length of GF must be 3/2 the length of EH. Since the length of EH is given as 48, we have:

GF=\frac{3}{2}EH, \\\\GF=\frac{3}{2}\cdot 48,\\\\GF=\boxed{72}

ABC Office Supply offers an electric typewriter for $129.95. If ABC received a 15% markup on cost by selling the typewriter at t
const2013 [10]
A 15% percent markup means that the typewriter cost was increased by 15%, or 0.15 by moving the decimal 2 places to the left. If the original price was x, and 15% of it is 0.15*x, we can add them up to get 1.15*x=129.95. Dividing both sides by 1.15, we get x=113 dollars

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (4,7) and has a slope of o?
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

The equation of the line that passes through the point (4,7) and has a slope of 0 will be:

  • y=7

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know the equation of a line in a slope-intercept form of an equation is

y = mx + b

Here,

  • m is the slop
  • b is the y-intercept

so

substituting the point (4,7) and slope m=0

y = mx + b

7=0(4)+b

7=0+b

b=7

Therefore, the equation of the line that passes through the point (4,7) and has a slope of 0 will be:

y = mx + b

y=0x+7

y=7
