Answer:

x + 5y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

y = -1/5 x + b

1 = -1/5 (-5) + b

1 = 1 + b

b = 0

y = -1/5 x

5y = -x

x + 5y = 0

£60 is divided between Peter, Angad & Nick so that Peter gets twice as much as Angad, and Angad gets three times as much as

Anna [14]

60£

Peter = 2 Angard

Nick = 6£

Angvard = 3 Nick = 6£*(3) = 18£

Peter = 6 Nick = 6£*(6) = 36£
