Well you subtract d from both sides with would make 2D-4=-8. Then you subtract four to both sides which is -12. Then you divide -12 by 2D which is 6. D=-6
Yes, we need the sisters age to find it the answer, not trying to be rude we just need the sisters age.
Answer:
I think it is 7x+5y=40. Tell me if I'm right because don't think I am.
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi,
Essentially, we are saying that Alyssa gets 5 parts of the whole thing (140,000), Bart gets 3 parts of the whole and Meghan gets 2 parts of the whole. The sum total of their parts = the whole. So now we need to find out how much one part is. Thus,"one part" should be the variable. Substitute p for "one part", so Alyssa gets 5p, Bart gets 3p, and Meghan gets 2p. Since the sum of the parts = the whole, your problem sets up as: 5p + 3p + 2p = 140,000 --> 10p = 140,000 --> 10p/10 = 140,000/10 --> x = 14,000.
Alyssa gets 5p or (5 x 14,000)
Bart gets 3p or (3 x 14,000)
Meghan gets 2p or (2 x 14,000)
If the whole was a loss, it would be a negative, and instead of getting money, they would lose money.
