3 0

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find what one share is

we have 3 shares + 2 shares + 5 shares

so he have a total of 10 shares

next, we divide 50 by total shares to get what one share is

50 ÷ 10 = 5

5 is one share

fins what each is

for 3

3 shares so 3 fives

3 × 5 = 15

for 2

2 shares so 2 fives

2 × 5 = 10

and for 5

can you work it out and leave in the comments i will say if it is correct

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y_2 - y_1 / x_2 - x _1

4 - 2 / 3 - (-1) = 2/4 = 1/2

y +4 = 1/2 (x + 3) distributive property

y + 4 = 1/2x + 1.5

y= 1/2x - 5/2 subtraction (you subtract 4 from both sides) (-5/2 = -2.5)

therefore your equation is y = 1/2x - 5/2

hope this helps :)

Answer:

32 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Carmen walked 30 yards due North and 12 yards West.

Now, if we join the initial and final position of Carmen and in this path Carmen comes back to her original position then the path, traveled by Carmen will form a right triangle and the direct path from her initial point to final point will be the hypotenuse of the right triangle.

Now, the two perpendicular legs of the triangle are respectively 30 yards and 12 yards.

Therefore, Carmen travel (Applying Pythagoras Theorem) to get back to her initial position by $\sqrt{30^{2} + 12^{2}} = 32.31$ yards ≈ 32 yards (to the nearest yard). (Answer)
