Answer:
£714.00
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is to set up expresssions for the two shares:
Let x = the amount of one share. The other share is 1785 - x. <u>You don't have to worry about which is smaller--that part will work out automatically</u>!
The two shares are in the ratio of 2:3, so set up the proportion
Again, you don't have to worry--you could set up the proportion "upside down" and everything will work out in the end.
Solve the proportion for x by "cross multiplying" -- use the Means-Extremes Property of proportions.
So one share is £714£ and the other is £1785 - £714 = £1071.
The smaller share is £714.

Answer:
x = -
Step-by-step explanation:
the equation of a circle centred at the origin is
x² + y² = r² ( r is the radius )
The radius of a unit circle is r = 1
substitute (x, - ) into the equation and solve for x
x² + (- )² = 1²
x² + = 1 ( subtract
from both sides )
x² = 1 - =
( take square root of both sides )
x = ± = ±
since the point is in the 3rd quadrant then x < 0
x = -
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First you need to use the distributive property:
3-2x+2x+3(6-3x)-7(1-2y)=25+6y
3-2x=2x+18-9x-7+14y=25+6y
3-2x=-7x+11+14y=25+6y
Then Split up the equations.
3-2x=-7x+11
Subtract 3 from both sides
-2x=-7x+8
Then add -7x to both sides
5x=8
Then divide both sides by 5x
X=
To solve for y: just use 14y=25+6y
Subtract both sides by 6y
8y=25
Then divide both sides by 8y
y=
