Answer:

x= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Ratio= 5:2:x

Combined ratio= 5+2+x

                        = 7+x

Total amount of money= $15000

Let us apply the part to all method

Hence for Matthew whose share = $7500

5/7+x=  7500/15000

Cross multiply we have

7500*(7+x)= 15000*5

52500+7500x= 75000

Collect like terms we have

7500x= 75000-52500

7500x=22500

x= 22500/7500

x=3

Hence the value of x= 3

liraira [26]

For rational functions and functions with square roots, the domain can be all real numbers except (1) anything that will make them because the square root of only non-negative values exists and that of negative values does not.

<h3>What are the domain and range of the function?</h3>

The domain of the function includes all possible x values of a function, and the range includes all possible y values of the function.

Let the functions with square roots be f(x) = √x.

The domain of this function is x ≥ 0,

Since the real number system does not exist the square root of negative numbers.

Therefore, For rational functions and functions with square roots, the domain can be all real numbers except (1) anything that will make them because the square root of only non-negative values exists and that of negative values does not.
