Answer:
£714.00
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is to set up expresssions for the two shares:
Let x = the amount of one share. The other share is 1785 - x. <u>You don't have to worry about which is smaller--that part will work out automatically</u>!
The two shares are in the ratio of 2:3, so set up the proportion

Again, you don't have to worry--you could set up the proportion "upside down" and everything will work out in the end.
Solve the proportion for x by "cross multiplying" -- use the Means-Extremes Property of proportions.

So one share is £714£ and the other is £1785 - £714 = £1071.
The smaller share is £714.

To find the slope take two ordered pairs and put them in form of x2-x1/y2-y1 and then you can find the slope.
(-2,17) (-3,20)
(-2)-(-3) = 1
(17)-(20)=-3
slope is 1/-3
Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find the answer to this by solving the equation:
3x - 4 = 8
3x - 4 + 4 = 8 + 4
3x = 12
x = 4
