The bisector of the angle at A (call it AQ) divides the segment BC into segments BQ:QC having the ratio AB:AC. Use this fact to find x.
.. 9:15 = (2x -1):3x
.. 15(2x -1) = 9*3x . . . . . the product of the means equals the product of extremes
.. 30x -15 = 27x
.. 3x = 15
.. x = 5
___
According to the value of x, the bisector AQ divides the triangle into two isosceles triangles: ABQ, ACQ.
Ana, Betty and Carol in the ratio of 2:3:5 respectively
mom cut the $600 in (2+3+5) 10 parts
and gave 3 parts to betty
so B got 600 : 10 x 3 = $180
Well when you multiply 32 times 5 you should end up with 160. Unless you multiplied the answer so wrong
It is 2 19/100, because the two is 200%, and the 19 is a prime number. hope this helps
