The way to work out how much each person gets is to find out how much one part is worth.
We can do this by adding the ratio (1:2) which gives us 3.
Divide £120 by 3 parts and you get £40 as one part.
Because the ratio is one part : two parts, Matt gets £40 and Cat gets £80.
Put the number over each the total that was added then, divide the bottom number to into the top number
Step-by-step explanation:
due to the rules of crossing lines and their angles, the 2 angles opposite of each other must be equal.
so,
7x + 7 = 112
7x = 105
x = 15
Answer:
y = 6, RS = 35 and ST = 17
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
RS = 5y+5
ST = 2y+5
RT = 52
If we consider a number line,
RT = RS + ST
52 = 5y+5 + 2y+5
52 = 7y + 10
7y = 52-10
7y = 42
y = 6
RS = 5y+5
= 5(6)+5
= 35
ST = 2y+5
= 2(6) +5
= 17
Hence, this is the required solution.
