Answer:

12,00,000 rupees

Step-by-step explanation:

The fraction originally intended for each son was ...

(1/3)(1 -2/5) = 1/3(3/5) = 1/5

The fraction each son actually received was ...

(1 -1/6)(1/5) = (5/6)(1/5) = 1/6

The difference in these amounts as a fraction of the original distribution is ...

1/5 - 1/6 = (6/30) -(5/30) = 1/30

Then the original distribution is 30 times this difference:

30×40000 rupees = 12,00,000 rupees

Additional comment

Originally-intended distribution (rupees):

wife: 4,80,000
each son: 2,40,000

Actual distribution:

brother: 2,00,000
wife: 4,00,000
each son: 2,00,000

1,00,000 = 1 lakh

Solve. 3x2 + 4x = –5 using quadratic equation ...?

cupoosta [38]

3x^2 + 4x - 5 = 0
x = [-b ±√(b^2 - 4ac)]/2a

a = 3
b = 4
c = -5

x = [-4 ±√(16 + 60)]/6
x = [-4 ±√76]/6
x = [-4 ±√(2^2 * 19)]/6
x = [-4 ±2√19]/6
x = [-2 ±√19]/3

x = [-2 + √19]/3
x = [-2 + 4.35]/3
x = 2.35/3
x = 0.78 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)

x = [-2 - ±√19]/3
x = [-2 - 4.35]/3
x = -6.35/3
x = -2.12 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)

∴ x = -2.12 , 0.78 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)

Write an equation of the line containing the point (6,-4) and perpendicular to.the line y=-2x-3

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

$y=\frac{1}{2}x-7$

Step-by-step explanation:

So we need to find an equation of a line that crosses the point (6,-4) and is perpendicular to y = -2x -3.

First, let's find the slope of the line we want to write. The line we want is perpendicular to y = -2x -3. Recall that if two lines are perpendicular to each other, their slopes are negative reciprocals of each other. What this means is that:

$m_1\cdot m_2=-1$
