I'm not exactly sure how to answer this question without knowing the number of scholars. However, if you do know the number of scholars, you can divide that number by 9. The quotient will give you the amount of chocolate each scholar can receive.

£150 is divided between Malachy, Paul & Brian so that Malachy gets twice as much as Paul, and Paul gets three times as much

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

£90

Step-by-step explanation:

Let M = Malachy's share

and P = Paul's share

and B = Brian's share.

We have three conditions:

(1) M = 2P

(2) P = 3B

(3) M + P + B = 150

Solve for B:

Substitute (2) into (3) (4) M + 3B + B = 150

(5) M + 4B = 150

Substitute (2) into (1) M = 2(3B)

(6) M = 6B

Substitute (6) into (5) 6B + 3B + B = 1 50

(7) B = 15

Solve for P:

Substitute (7) into (2) P = 3×15

(8) P = 45

Solve for M:

Substitute (8) into (1) M = 2×45

M = 90

Malachy gets £90.

What is the product ? (X-3)(2x^2-5x+1)

ankoles [38]

$(x - 3)(2x {}^{2} - 5x + 1)$

$2x {}^{3} - 5x {}^{2} + x - 6x {}^{2} + 15x - 3$

$2x {}^{3} - 11x {}^{2} + 16x - 3$
