Answer:

Paula get \$144 and Kawai get \$168.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Paula and Kawai shared \$312 in the ratio of 6:7.

To find: How much money  did each person get?

Solution:

We have,

Paula and Kawai shared \$312 in the ratio of 6:7.

So, let Paula get \$6x and Kawai get \$7x.

As per the question,

6x+7x=312

\implies13x=312

\implies x=\frac{312}{13} =24

Therefore, Paula get 6\times 24=\$144, and Kawai get 7\times 24=\$168.

Hence, Paula get \$144 and Kawai get \$168.

We know that

<span>the isosceles triangle has two equal sides
</span>
<span>let's analyze two cases
</span>
first case
perimeter=22 cm
<span>let's suppose that the known side of 6 cm is one of the two equal sides
</span>perimeter=6+6+x
22=6+6+x-----> x=22-12----> x=10 cm

answer first case
<span>the possible lengths of the other two sides are
</span>6 cm 
10 cm

second case
let's suppose that the known side of 6 cm is the side that is not equal
perimeter=22 cm
perimeter=6+x+x
22=6+x+x----> 2x=22-6----> 2x=16-----> x=8 cm


answer second case
