Answer:

Katherine: 920

Crystal: 552

Step-by-step explanation:

The total amount earned by each is 1472

The ratio of the earnings is Katherine / Crustal = 5/3

The total number of shares = 5 + 3 = 8

So the proportion for Katherine

5/8 = x / 1472                Cross multiply

8x = 5 * 1472

8x = 7360

x = 7360/8

x = 920

And the proportion for Crystal is

3/8 = x / 1472                 Cross multiply

8x = 3 * 1472

8x = 4416

x = 4416 / 8

x =  552

How do you simply -12x=12x into an x='s answer?
dedylja [7]

-12x = 12x

Start by moving all the terms with the variable you want to solve for on one side of the equation and the rest on the other side of the equation.

We will move 12x to the left side of the equation by subtracting 12x from both sides. Now your equation should look like:

-24x = 0

Isolate the variable x by dividing both sides by -24. Everything divided by 0 is equal to 0, so that means x will be equal to 0.

x = 0

Your answer is x = 0.

What is the vertical asymptote for this function?<br> y=1/x-2
nataly862011 [7]

Answer: x = 0

Step-by-step explanation: so x = 0 is the equation of the vertical asymptote, and 0 must be left out of the domain: (−∞,0)U(0,∞) in interval notation.

Janie receives an allowance of $3 per week. In addition, she can earn $2 for each chore she does. This week, she wants to earn e
Lilit [14]
Let us say that the number of weeks is "x" and the number of chores is "y".

If we state an algebraic expression for Janie's allowance it would be

3x+2y=13

However, there are two variables, hence many answers. To solve this problem, there must be more information about the relation between x and y.
