Answer:

Phoebe has £180, Andy has £60, and Polly has £30.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, to start of let's establish some variables! We'll give Phoebe the variable "p", Andy the variable "a", and Polly the variable "o". By giving each person a variable we can create an equation and solve for it!

<em>So, what do we know?</em>

Well we know the following information...

<em>p + a + o = 270</em>

(Phoebe + Andy + Polly = £270)

<em>p = 3a</em>

(Phoebe = 3 times more than Andy)

<em>a = 2o</em>

(Andy = 2 times more than Polly)

To be able to solve this equation we have to solve for just one variable first.<em>The only one we can use is "o" for Polly!</em>

<em></em>

3(2o) + 2o + o = 270

6o + 2o + o = 270 (Distribute 3 to get like terms)

9o = 270 (Combine like terms [6+2+1])

o = 30 (Divide by 9 on both sides to get "o" by itself)

Now that we have how much Polly has, we have to solve for Andy and Phoebe. <em>(To do this we will input our value, 30, where our variable is "o")</em>

<em></em>

<u>Andy</u>

a = 2(30) (Input term)

a = 60 (Multiply by 2 to get final answer)

<em>(Since we now know what Andy has we can input 60 into our "a" variable to solve for Phoebe)</em>

<u>Phoebe</u>

p = 3(60) (Input term)

p = 180 (Multiply by 3 to get final answer)

Now! Just to check we are going to input our variables into our original equation to be sure we have the right variables.

p + a + o = 270

180 + 60 + 30 = 270!!

Hope this Helps! :)

A synthetic fiber used in manufacturing carpet has tensile strength that is normally distributed with mean 75.5 psi and standard
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

The standard deviation reduces when sample size (n) increases

Step-by-step explanation:

From the above information given, we have that mean = 75.5

Standard deviation = 3.5

But Standard deviation = √summation (x-u)/n

This simply implies that when sample (n) is increased there would be a reduction in the standard deviate.

What is the length of the diagonal of a 10 cm by 15 cm rectangle?
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

18.02 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

A diagonal makes a rectangle into two right triangles. So if we use the Pythagorean theorem we can find the hypotenuse which is the diagonals.

Remember, because we know the length and width, we know the two sides.

10^2 + 15^2 = c^2

100+225 = c^2

325 = c^2

18.027 ≈ c

Please Hurry ...Which expression is equivalent to
swat32

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf \frac{160rs^5}{t^6}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\sf 5r^6t^4 ( \frac{4r^3s^tt^4}{2r^4st^6} ) ^5

Using rule of exponents \sf a^m/a^n = a^{m-n}

\sf 5r^6t^4 ( 2 r^{3-4} s^{2-1}t^{4-6})^5\\5r^6t^4(2r^{-1}st^{-2})^5\\5r^6t^4 * 32 r^{-5}s^5t^{-10}

Using rule of exponents \sf a^m*a^n = a^{m+n}

\sf 160 r^{6-5}s^5t^{4-10}

\sf 160 rs^5 t^{-6}

To equalize the negative sign, we'll move t to the denominator

\sf \frac{160rs^5}{t^6}
