Step-by-step explanation:

here's your solution

=> total money received by them = $1600

=> the given ratio are 7:5:4

=> let the ratio be X ,now

=> Maria = 7X

=> Carolina = 5X

=> Pedro = 4X

=> we know whole money = $1600

=> so, adding all

=>. 7x + 5x + 4x = $1600

=> 16x = $1600

=> x= $1600/16

=>. x = $100

now Maria = 7*100 = $700

Carolina = 5*100 = $500

Pedro = 4*100 = $400

hope it helps

The midpoint of AB is M(-5,1). If the coordinates of A are (-4,-5), what are the coordinates of B?

Elenna [48]

ANSWER:

The midpoint of AB is M(-5,1). The coordinates of B are (-6, 7)

SOLUTION:

Given, the midpoint of AB is M(-5,1).

The coordinates of A are (-4,-5),

We need to find the coordinates of B.

We know that, mid-point formula for two points A $(x_{1}, y_{1})$ and B $(x_{1}, y_{2})$ is given by

$M\left(x_{3}, y_{3}\right)=\left(\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2}, \frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2}\right)$

Here, in our problem, $\mathrm{x}_{3}=-5, \mathrm{y}_{3}=1, \mathrm{x}_{1}=-4 \text { and } \mathrm{y}_{1}=-5$

Now, on substituting values in midpoint formula, we get

$(-5,1)=\left(\frac{-4+x_{2}}{2}, \frac{-5+y_{2}}{2}\right)$

On comparing, with the formula,

$\frac{-4+x_{2}}{2}=-5 \text { and } \frac{-5+y_{2}}{2}=1$

$-4+\mathrm{x}_{2}=-10 \text { and }-5+\mathrm{y}_{2}=2$

$\mathrm{x}_{2}=-6 \text { and } \mathrm{y}_{2}=7$

Hence, the coordinates of b are (-6, 7).

On Monday, a clothing store sold 25 pairs of pants. On Tuesday, the store sold 37 pairs of pants.What was the percent of increas

salantis [7]

Hello u,
on monday⇒25pants
tuesday⇒37pants
u agree that there is an increase in sail from monday to tuesday.this increase is calculated as follows,
%increase=[(number of pants sold on tuesday-pants sold on monday)/number of pants sold on monday]*100=48%
