*Given
Money of Phoebe - 3 times as much as Andy
Money of Andy - 2 times as much as Polly
Total money of Phoebe, - <span>£270
</span> Andy and Polly
*Solution
Let
B - Phoebe's money
A - Andy's money
L - Polly's money
1. The money of the Phoebe, Andy, and Polly, when added together would total <span>£270. Thus,
</span>
B + A + L = <span>£270 (EQUATION 1)
2. Phoebe has three times as much money as Andy and this is expressed as
B = 3A
3. Andy has twice as much money as Polly and this is expressed as
A = 2L</span> (EQUATION 2)
<span>
4. This means that Phoebe has ____ as much money as Polly,
B = 3A
B = 3 x (2L)
B = 6L </span>(EQUATION 3)<span>
This step allows us to eliminate the variables B and A in EQUATION 1 by expressing the equation in terms of Polly's money only.
5. Substituting B with 6L, and A with 2L, EQUATION 1 becomes,
6L + 2L + L = </span><span>£270
</span> 9L = <span>£270
</span> L = <span>£30
So, Polly has </span><span>£30.
6. Substituting L into EQUATIONS 2 and 3 would give us the values for Andy's money and Phoebe's money, respectively.
</span>
A = 2L
A = 2(£30)
A = £60
Andy has £60
B = 6L
B = 6(£30)
B = £180
Phoebe has £180
Therefore, Polly's money is £30, Andy's is £60, and Phoebe's is £180.

Answer with explanation:</h2>
We are asked to prove by the method of mathematical induction that:
where n is a positive integer.
then we have:
Hence, the result is true for n=1.
- Let us assume that the result is true for n=k
i.e.
- Now, we have to prove the result for n=k+1
i.e.
<u>To prove:</u> 
Let us take n=k+1
Hence, we have:
( Since, the result was true for n=k )
Hence, we have:
Also, we know that:
(
Since, for n=k+1 being a positive integer we have:
)
Hence, we have finally,
Hence, the result holds true for n=k+1
Hence, we may infer that the result is true for all n belonging to positive integer.
i.e.
where n is a positive integer.
Answer:
$45.43
Step-by-step explanation:
20 × 0.18 = 3.60
18.50 × 0.18 = 3.33
3.60 + 3.33 = 6.93
The total in tips is 6.93
20 + 18.50 = 38.50
The total meal cost is 38.50
38.50 + 6.93 = 45.43
The total of everything is 45.43
