(2-y)/(y+7)=3/5 what is the answer

1 answer:

3 0

Multiplying both sides by y+7, we get 2-y=(3y+21)/5 and then by multiplying both sides by 5 we get 10-5y=3y+21. After that, subtract 21 from both sides as well as add 5y to both sides to get -11=8y, so divide by 8 to get -11/8=y

£70 is divided between Natasha, Richard & Stephen so that Natasha gets twice as much as Richard, and Richard gets three time

Korvikt [17]

The share of Natasha is £ 42

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

£70 is divided between Natasha, Richard & Stephen

Total amount = 70

Let the share of natasha be "x"

Let the share of richard be "y"

Let the share of stephen be "z"

Natasha gets twice as much as Richard

x = 2y ------ eqn 1

Richard gets three times as much as Stephen

y = 3z

$z = \frac{y}{3}$ ----- eqn 2

Total amount = 70

share of natasha + share of richard + share of stephen = 70

x + y + z = 70

Substitute eqn 1 and eqn 2

$2y + y + \frac{y}{3} = 70\\\\\frac{6y+3y+y}{3} = 70\\\\10y = 210\\\\y = 21$

Substitute y = 21 in eqn 1

x = 2y = 2(21) = 42

x = 42

Thus natasha gets £ 42
