Answer: 120

Step-by-step explanation:

3+2=5

Let x be the amount of money to be shared

Paul’s share which is (3/5)x is 60+ Quinn’s share which is (2/5)x

Therefore

(3/5)x= (2/5)x + 60

(3/5)x - (2/5)x= 60

(x/5)=60

Cross multiply

x= 60*5=300

It means that Quinn’s share is (2/5)(300)= 120

How do you solve 9 tenths minus 13 fiftenths
Elena L [17]

Answer:

0.04

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 9/10 = 0.9 and 13/15 = 0.86

2. Subtract 0.9 and 0.86

3. You should end up with 0.04

Remember when a number goes like 0.86666666666 to use 0.86 or if it has 0.86666666667 to use 0.87 because you would be simplifying it.

Write the point-slope form of the equation of the horizontal line that passes through the point (2, 1). Pease show how!
mote1985 [20]
Check the picture below.

using a second for it, since it's a horizontal line, then say hmmm we'll use the y-intercept, or (0, 1), so the equation of a line that passes through (2,1) and (0,1)

\bf \begin{array}{lllll}
&x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\
%   (a,b)
&({{ 2}}\quad ,&{{ 1}})\quad 
%   (c,d)
&({{ 0}}\quad ,&{{ 1}})
\end{array}
\\\\\\
% slope  = m
slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies 
\cfrac{{{ y_2}}-{{ y_1}}}{{{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}}}\implies \cfrac{1-1}{0-2}\implies \cfrac{0}{-2}
\\\\\\
% point-slope intercept
\stackrel{\textit{point-slope form}}{y-{{ y_1}}={{ m}}(x-{{ x_1}})}\implies y-1=0(x-2)
