Answer:

2 × 54,000 ÷ (1+2)

£36,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cost of the business = £54,000

wages : other costs = 2 : 1

Total ratio = 2 + 1 = 3

How much do I spend on wages every year?

Amount spent on wages yearly = ratio of wages / total ratio × Total cost of the business

= 2 × 54,000 ÷ (1+2)

= 2/3 × £54,000

= £108,000/3

= £36,000

Amount spent on wages yearly = £36,000

Haryati had 1250 oranges.
Blababa [14]
First you subtract 242 from 1250 which gives you 1080. Then you divide it by 8 which gives you 126. Multiply this value by 3 and this shows that Haryati received $378. Hope this is helpful.

Y= -0.25x + 4.7<br> Y=4.9x - 1.64
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

The answer would be (1.23, 4.39)

Step-by-step explanation:

Because they are both equal to y, we can set the equations equal to each other and then solve.

4.9x - 1.64 = -0.25x + 4.7

5.15x - 1.64 = 4.7

5.15x = 6.34

x = 1.23

Now that we have the value for x, we can plug into either equation and find y.

y = -0.25x + 4.7

y = -0.25(1.23) + 4.7

y = -.31 + 4.7

y = 4.39
