Answer:

First, you want to know the profits of the three people involved. so...

4800/3=1600

Then, you would make an equation with the proportions: 9x+7y+4x=4800.

Add the invests: 9+7+4=20x and the 4800 would stay same. 

Then divide 4800/20 to get 240 

Now plug the investments to 240 

(9)(240) is 2160 

(7)(240) 1680 

(4)(240) is 960

Lastly, you must subtract to find x as the investments 

so you would do 2160-1600 and you get x=560 

$560 is your final answer

TA2: 1387

TA98: A02.5.04.028

The intercondylar fossa of femur (intercondyloid fossa of femur, intercondylar notch of femur) is a deep notch between the rear surfaces of the medial and lateral epicondyle of the femur, two protrusions on the distal end of the femur (thigh bone) that joins the knee. On the front of the femur, the condyles are but much less prominent and are separated from one another by a smooth shallow articular depression called the patellar surface because it articulates with the posterior surface of the patella (kneecap).

The intercondylar fossa of femur and/or the patellar surface may also be referred to as the patellar groove, patellar sulcus, patellofemoral groove, femoropatellar groove, femoral groove, femoral sulcus, trochlear groove of femur, trochlear sulcus of femur, trochlear surface of femur, or trochlea of femur.

On a lateral radiograph, it is evident as Blumensaat's line.

Withdrawal symptoms are both physical and psychological responses to the absence of a given substance.
luda_lava [24]
True, withdrawal means the removing of a substance from someone’s body. Such as Nicotine Withdrawals. People who stop caping after doing it frequently get withdrawals such as tics and not being able to focus. This is because the substance is being removed from the body after the body was adjusted to it.
