Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Ratio=12:40

Required

Determine the actual distance between x and y

The question is incomplete, as the scale distance between x and y is not given.

To solve this, we make assumptions.

A scale measurement is represented as:

Ratio =  Scale : Actual

So, we have:

Scale : Actual = 12 : 40

Express as fraction

\frac{Actual}{Scale} = \frac{40}{12}

Make Actual, the subject

Actual = \frac{40}{12} * Scale

Now, assume that the distance between x and y is 60 (on the scale), the actual distance traveled will be:

Actual = \frac{40}{12} * 60

Actual = 200

What is different between solving inequalities and absolute value inequalities?
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

The absolute number of a number a is written as

|a|

And represents the distance between a and 0 on a number line.

An absolute value equation is an equation that contains an absolute value expression. The equation

|x|=a

Has two solutions x = a and x = -a because both numbers are at the distance a from 0.

To solve an absolute value equation as

|x+7|=14

You begin by making it into two separate equations and then solving them separately.

x+7=14

x+7−7=14−7

x=7

or

x+7=−14

x+7−7=−14−7

x=−21

An absolute value equation has no solution if the absolute value expression equals a negative number since an absolute value can never be negative.

The inequality

|x|<2

Represents the distance between x and 0 that is less than 2

Whereas the inequality

|x|>2

Represents the distance between x and 0 that is greater than 2

You can write an absolute value inequality as a compound inequality.

−2<x<2

This holds true for all absolute value inequalities.

|ax+b|<c,wherec>0

=−c<ax+b<c

|ax+b|>c,wherec>0

=ax+b<−corax+b>c

You can replace > above with ≥ and < with ≤.

When solving an absolute value inequality it's necessary to first isolate the absolute value expression on one side of the inequality before solving the inequality.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps :)

£750 is divided between Bridget, Caroline &amp; Sarah so that Bridget gets twice as much as Caroline, and Caroline gets three ti
Sladkaya [172]

Answer: £225

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Sarah's amount be represented by x.

Since Caroline gets three times as much as Sarah, Caroline will get: 3x

Bridget gets twice as much as Caroline, therefore Bridget will get: 2 × 3x = 6x

Sarah = x

Caroline = 3x

Bridget = 6x

Total = x + 3x + 6x = 10x

Caroline's faction is 3/10. We then multiply the fraction by £750. This will be:

= 3/10 × £750

= 0.3 × £750

= £225

Caroline will get £225
