-15° Fahrenheit.............
Answer:
€120
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us represent
Ann = x
Brian = y
Carol = z
€400 is divided between Ann, Brian and Carol
Hence: x + y + z = €400...... Equation 1
Ann has twice as much as Brian
Hence:
x = 2y
Brian has three times as much as Carol.
y = 3z
z = y/3
We substitute
x + y + z = €400...... Equation 1
2y + y + y/3= €400
Multiply both sides by 3
2y × 3 + y × 3 + y/3 × 3 = €400 × 3
6y + 3y + y = €1200
10y = €1200
y = €1200/10
y = €120
How much does Brian receives ?
Since, Brian = y
Brian receives €120
I do believe that the answer is 900.
Steps:
I first set up a proportion, with 8/100 and 72/x (x being the number we are trying to find)
As I was taught, you multiply 100 by 72, which equals 7,200.
Then, I divided 7,200 by 8, which gave me 900.
This is what the proportion process should have looked like:
8/100 72/x
7,200/8
x=900
I hope this helps!
Answer:
(3 x 14) + 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of cookies that kate eats be ‘n’
kate : n
nacy : 2n-4
avery : 2(2n-4)
n + 2n-4 + 2(2n+4) = 18
7n - 12 = 16
7n = 28
n = 4
kate : 4
nacy : 2x4 - 4 = 4
avery : 2(2x4 - 4) =8
