The answer to your question is 5
Hi,
Essentially, we are saying that Alyssa gets 5 parts of the whole thing (140,000), Bart gets 3 parts of the whole and Meghan gets 2 parts of the whole. The sum total of their parts = the whole. So now we need to find out how much one part is. Thus,"one part" should be the variable. Substitute p for "one part", so Alyssa gets 5p, Bart gets 3p, and Meghan gets 2p. Since the sum of the parts = the whole, your problem sets up as: 5p + 3p + 2p = 140,000 --> 10p = 140,000 --> 10p/10 = 140,000/10 --> x = 14,000.
Alyssa gets 5p or (5 x 14,000)
Bart gets 3p or (3 x 14,000)
Meghan gets 2p or (2 x 14,000)
If the whole was a loss, it would be a negative, and instead of getting money, they would lose money.

Step-by-step explanation:
In ΔABC, m∠B = m∠C.
BH is angle B bisector, then by definition of angle bisector
∠CBH ≅ ∠HBK
m∠CBH = m∠HBK = 1/2m∠B
CK is angle C bisector, then by definition of angle bisector
∠BCK ≅ ∠KCH
m∠BCK = m∠KCH = 1/2m∠C
Since m∠B = m∠C, then
m∠CBH = m∠HBK = 1/2m∠B = 1/2m∠C = m∠BCK = m∠KCH (*)
Consider triangles CBH and BCK. In these triangles,
- ∠CBH ≅ ∠BCK (from equality (*));
- ∠HCB ≅ ∠KBC, because m∠B = m∠C;
- BC ≅CB by reflexive property.
So, triangles CBH and BCK are congruent by ASA postulate.
Congruent triangles have congruent corresponding sides, hence
BH ≅ CK.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The direction of movement of Jordan on his birthday forms a right angle triangle. His movement from his house to his parents due south represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle. His movement due west represents the adjacent side and the movement back home along the straight line, d represents the hypotenuse. To determine d, we would apply the Pythagorean theorem. Thus
d² = 6² + 4² = 52
d = √52 = 7.2 km
The total distance that he drove on his birthday is
6 + 4 + 7.2 = 17.2 km
