Answer:

m = -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that slope = (change in y) / (change in x).

Going from  (−8,−1) to (−6,−2), x increases by 2 (because -6 - (-8) = 2), and

y decreases by 1.  Thus, the slope here is

m = (change in y) / (change in x) = (-1) / 2 = -1 / 2

m = -1/2

A sum of money is divided amongst Farah, Shaiyara and Zahin in the ratio 10: 7: 5. If
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answers:

  • Total amount of money =  220 dollars
  • Amount Farah gets = 100 dollars

==========================================================

Explanation:

  • F = amount Farah gets
  • S = amount Shaiyara gets
  • Z = amount Zahin gets

The money is divided in the ratio 10:7:5

This means that

  • F = 10x
  • S = 7x
  • Z = 5x

for some positive real number x.

Since Shaiyara gets $20 more than Zahin, we can say,

S = Z+20

Let's plug in S = 7x and Z = 5x and solve for x

S = Z+20

7x = 5x+20

7x-5x = 20

2x = 20

x = 20/2

x = 10

Therefore,

  • F = 10x = 10*10 = 100
  • S = 7x = 7*10 = 70
  • Z = 5x = 5*10 = 50

The ratio F:S:Z becomes 100:70:50 which reduces fully to 10:7:5 after dividing all three parts by the GCF 10.

The total sum of money shared is 100+70+50 = 220 dollars and Farah gets $100 of that total.
