The amount each boy receives from the R2100 is R420, R700 and R980 respectively

<h3>How to find ratio</h3>

Total amount = R2100

Ratio = 3 : 5 : 7

Total ratio = 3 + 5 + 7

= 15

First boy = 3/15 × 2100

= 0.2 × 2100

= R420

Second boy = 5/15 × 2100

= 0.33333333333333 × 2100

= R700

Third boy = 7/15 × 2100

= 0.46666666666666 × 2100

= R980

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadrilateral inscribed in a circle has its opposite angles adding up to 180°

<NOP + <M = 180

4x+8x-24 = 180

12x = 180+24

12x = 204

Dividing both sides by 12

x = 17

<NOP = 4(17)

= 68°

A triangle is in the shape of a 30-60-90 right triangle. If the hypotenuse is 11 cm long, find the length of the shorter leg.

soldier1979 [14.2K]

A 30 60 90 triangle has its shorter side equal to one half the hypotenuse.
So, if hypotenuse = 11 cm then shorter side = 5.5.
