2400 in prize money...
the first winner will receive 1/3 of the money..
1/3 * 2400 = 2400/3 = 800
leaving 2400 - 800 = 1600
the next 10 winners will receive 1/10 of the remaining amount
1/10 * 1600 = 1600/10 = 160 <== each will receive $ 160
Answer: 17 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
84 - 25(2) = 2x

Answer:
C Vertex is (2, 27)
Step-by-step explanation:
C Vertex is (2, 27)
Start by making the denominators equal.
1/3 becomes 4/12
1/6 becomes 2/12
and you have 5/12.
Add together to get 10/12.
Once simplified, the answer should be 5/6.
6-6a=3a-3b+1, 9a-3b=5
<span>4b - 8 =3a, 3a-4b=-8
</span>
9a-3b=5
(3a-4b=-8 )*(-3 )
9a -3b= 5
-9a+12b=+24
adding both equations
9b=29, b=29/9
3a=4b-8=4*29/9 -8=(4*29-8*9)/9 = 44/9
a=44/27
a-b=44/27 - 29/9=44/27 - 29*3/27=-43/27
this is a correct answer, unfortunately they do not have this choice, probably they made mistake somewhere. I even check the solution of equations by substitution values of a and b into equations
