£6000 is to be shared among David, Daniel and Dennis, Daniel is to get one and a half times as much as David, while Denis is to get three and a half times as much as David. Determine (i) the ratio in which the money is to be shared. (ii) the amount of money each will get.?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(i) David: Daniel: Dennis= 2: 3: 7

(ii) David, Daniel and Dennis will get £1000, £1500 and £3500 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

(i) Let the amount of money obtained by David, Daniel and Dennis be x, y and z pounds respectively.

x +y +z= 6000 -----(1)

y= 1.5x -----(2)

z= 3.5x -----(3)

Let's write the amount of money each gets in terms of x.

David --- x

Daniel --- 1.5x

Dennis --- 3.5x

In ratio, David: Daniel: Dennis

= 1: 1.5: 3.5

= 2: 3: 7

This is obtained by multiplying 2 throughout the ratio as ratio is its simplest form is in whole numbers and does not have decimals.

_______

(ii) Now that we know how the money is shared in terms of ratio, we can easily determine how much each of them receives.

Total amount of money= £6000

Total number of units

= 2u +3u +7u

= 12u

Thus, 12 units represents £6000.

12u ----- £6000

1u ----- £6000 ÷12= £500

Amount of money David will receive

= 2u

= 2(£500)

= £1000

Amount of money Daniel will receive

= 3u

= 3(£500)

= £1500

Amount of money Dennis will receive

= 7u

= 7(£500)

= £3500

Extra notes:

• Units are represented by the letter 'u' in the working. They can also be called parts and their value is in relation to the total amount. Thus if David gets 2 units of the total money, and the total amount is 12 units, he receives 2/12 or ⅙ of the total sum of money.

Three sisters have ages that are consecutive odd integers. The sum of the age of the youngest and three times the age of the oldest is five less than five times the middle sister’s age.

Answers

Answer:

youngest   17  

middle  19

oldest    21

Step-by-step explanation:

Three sisters have ages that are consecutive odd integers

youngest = x

middle = x + 2

oldest = x + 4

--------------------

The sum of the age of the youngest

x

and three times the age of the oldest

+ 3(x + 4)

is five less than five times the middle sister’s age

= 5(x + 2) - 5

-----------------------

x + 3(x + 4) = 5(x + 2) - 5

Distribute

x + 3x + 12 = 5x + 10 - 5

Combine like terms

4x + 12 = 5x - 5

Subtract 4x from both sides

12 = x - 5

Add 5 to both sides

17 = x

youngest   x = 17  

middle     x + 2 = 19

oldest     x + 4 = 21

Colleen buys a robot priced at $33.If the sales tax is10%,how much tax will Colleen pay?

Answers

Answer:

$3.3 tax

Final price is 36.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, if the tax is expressed in percent, divide the tax rate by 100. You can do this by simply moving the decimal point two spaces to the left. In this example, we do 10/100 = 0.1

tax= 33 * 0.1

tax=3.3

Finally, add tax to the before tax price to get the final price including tax.

The final price including tax = 33 + 3.3 = 36.3

Solve your word problem using a model. Use complete sentences to describe your model, and interpret the quotient in the context of your word problem. If you wish, you may upload a copy of your model.

Answers

The model [tex]x = \frac{6}{3}[/tex], can be used to solve the world problem representing a scenario where John wants to share 6 apples amongst his three friends. x = 2, is the quotient which is interpreted as the number of apples each of John's friend will get.

Word problem describes real world situations which can be translated into expressions as a model.

For example, if John has 6 apples and John has three friends, how many apples would each of the friend get (x) if he is to share the 6 apples amongst the three of them?

To solve this, we can model the situation as follows:

Let x represent the number of apples each friend would get (quotient).

Thus:

[tex]x = \frac{6}{3}\\\\\mathbf{x = 2}[/tex]

The quotient (x) in this model can be interpreted as the number of apples each of John's friend will get.

Thus, the model [tex]x = \frac{6}{3}[/tex], can be used to solve the world problem representing a scenario where John wants to share 6 apples amongst his three friends. x = 2, is the quotient which is interpreted as the number of apples each of John's friend will get.

Answer:

A = (1, 10)

B = (4,10)

C = (4, 14)

D = (1, 16)

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so first, we move, or translate the quadrilateral PQRS down -8 spaces on the graph, turning old points:

P (1, -2) = (1, -10)     Q (4, -2) = (4, - 10)     S (1, -8) = (1, -16)     and R (4, -6) = (4, -14)

Now, we need to rotate this new box into -x, y. So our new points are:

(1, -10) = (-1, 10)     (4, -10) = (-4, 10)     (1, -16) = (-1, 16)     and (4,-14) = (-4, 14)

Now we're reflecting off the y-axis, making our x change. So for our final points:

A(1, 10)   B (4,10)    D(1, 16)    and C(4, 14)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be n , then

78 - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] n = 45 ( subtract 78 from both sides )

- [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] n = - 33 ( multiply both sides by - 2 to clear the fraction )

When dividing fractions, you can multiply by the inverse of the fraction. For example, in this case, [tex]14 divided by \frac{2}{3} = \frac{14}{1}x\frac{3}{2}[/tex]. Whoever drew the calculations made the mistake of forgetting to flip the second fraction.

(81)¾ - (27)⅓
\3 × 2³​

Answers

Answer:

I won't tell you the answer but if you read the solution, you would understand it.

Step-by-step explanation:

81^3/4 is basically 3 times the fourth root of 81. What number multiplies 4 times to make 81? Then multiply that by 3.

Now we have the cube root of 27. If you have a fractional exponent with no numerator, that just means square root, cube root, fourth root.

Eg. the exponent 1/4 would just mean fourth root

Eg. The exponent 1/2 would just mean square root

The cube root of 27 is 3.

The denominator is 3 times 2 to the third power.

PEMDAS

Order of Operations tells us we do exponents first so 2 to the third power is 8 and multiply by that 3.

Which of the following domain restrictions would enable h(x) to have an inverse function?
a. x < 1
b. x >5
c. x < 3
d. x > 4

(Ps: all four answer and larger equal then or smaller equal then

Answers

Answer:

No inverse function:  (a), (b), (c)

Inverse function exists:  (d)

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph of h(x) = (x - 2)^2 + 3 is a parabola that opens upward and has vertex at (2, 3).  If the entire graph is drawn, and the horizontal line test then applied, h(x) would not have an inverse, because the horizontal line would intersect the  parabolic graph twice.

Note that if we restricted the domain to x ≥ 2, the resulting graph would pass the horizontal line test.  This would also be true for x ≥ 3, x ≥ 4, and so on.  Not so for (a) x < 1.  False for x > -5.  True for x < 3.  True for x > 4.

No inverse function:  (a), (b), (c)

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason that this is A is because 5$ is the initial fee and you dont pay any more than that, since 21$ is the max you can afford it is going to be less than or equal to 21. and if it is 2.75$ per stop then it is the number of stops times 2.75. A is your answer.
