Brian gets 5x and Colin gets x amount.

Brian gets 60 more than Colin, so you get:

5x - x = 60

Simplify to get:

4x = 60

Divide both sides by 4:

x = 15

Brian gets 5x = 5(15) = 75

Colin gets x = 15

75 + 15 = 90

The total amount they get is £90

Find values of a and b that make the statement |a+b|= |a|+|b| false.
jok3333 [9.3K]

The values that make this statement falser are any in which a and b do not have the same sign.

For instance, if a was equal to 3 and b was equal to -3 than see the results.

|a+b|=

|3+-3|=

|0|= 0

Then see the next equation with the same selections

|a|+|b|

|3|+|-3|

3 + 3 = 6

And this would be true no matter which is the negative, as long as there is one negative and one positive.
