Answer: 10.75 currency units

Step-by-step explanation:

The amounts of money are in the ration 8:3 which means that for every 3 units of the second amount, there are 8 units of the first.

Use direct proportion to solve:

8 : 3

x ; 4.03

Cross multiply to get:

3x = 32.24

x = 32.24 / 3

x = 10.75 currency units

Answer:

$b_{1}=\frac{2A}{h}-b_{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: $A=\frac{1}{2}(b_{1} +b_{2})h$

We need to completely isolate $b_{1}$ to solve.

$A=\frac{1}{2}(b_{1} +b_{2})h$

$A=(\frac{1}{2}b_{1} +\frac{1}{2} b_{2})h$

$A=\frac{1}{2}b_{1} h+\frac{1}{2}b_{2}h$

$-\frac{1}{2}b_{1}h+A=\frac{1}{2}b_{2}h$

$-\frac{1}{2}b_{1}h=-A+\frac{1}{2}b_{2}h$

$-\frac{1}{2}b_{1}=\frac{-A}{h}+\frac{1}{2}b_{2}$

Finally, multiply both sides by -2 to completely isolate $b_{1}$ .

$b_{1}=\frac{2A}{h}-b_{2}$
