Using proportions, it is found that:

  • Andrew gets R 1850.
  • Each of Brendan and Clair get R 1387.5.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of total amount.

In this problem, the total amount divided is R 4625.

For every R4 Andrew gets, both Brendan and Clair gets R3, hence the ratio is 4:3:3, which means that:

  • Andrew gets \frac{4}{4 + 3 + 3} = \frac{4}{10} = 0.4 of the total amount.
  • Brendan gets \frac{3}{4 + 3 + 3} = \frac{3}{10} = 0.3 of the total amount.
  • Clair gets \frac{3}{4 + 3 + 3} = \frac{3}{10} = 0.3 of the total amount.

Then:

A = 0.4(4625) = 1850

B = C = 0.3(4625) = 1387.5

Hence:

  • Andrew gets R 1850.
  • Each of Brendan and Clair get R 1387.5.

Nataliya [291]
So what we do first is find out the cost per foot which is 305÷154=1.9805194805194805195
Then we find out the area of the second rug which is 288 feet and multiply that by the cost 1.9805194805194805195. We then get 1.9805194805194805195x288=570.38961038961038961

Kamila [148]

Solve the absolute value equation.

First subtract 5 from both sides.

|x|+5=18

|x|=13

If the absolute value of x is 13 that x equals 13 and -13. Absolute value means distance from 0.

x=13,-13
