Rachel, Neil, Caroline share an amount of money.
Rachel gets five time as much money as Neil gets.
Rachel get half as much money as Caroline gets.

what fraction of the amount of money does Rachel get?

Answers

Answer 1

The fraction of the money belonging to Rachel is [tex]\frac{5}{16}[/tex]

Let [tex]R[/tex] be the amount of money Rachel has

Let [tex]N[/tex] be the amount of money Neil has

Let [tex]C[/tex] be the amount of money Caroline has

Let [tex]M[/tex] be the total amount of money shared between the three people

Then, from the problem we have the following relationships

[tex]R+N+C=M\\\\5N=R \implies N=\frac{R}{5}\\\\\frac{C}{2}=R\implies C=2R[/tex]

Substituting the formulae for [tex]N[/tex] and [tex]C[/tex] into the sum [tex]R+N+C=M[/tex], we get

[tex]R+\frac{R}{5}+2R=M\\\\\frac{5R+R+10R}{5}=M\\\\\frac{16R}{5}=M\\R=\frac{5M}{16}[/tex]

Or, we can say that, [tex]R=\frac{5}{16}\text{ of }M[/tex]

Therefore, the fraction of money Rachel gets is [tex]\frac{5}{16}[/tex] of the total amount.

Answer:

A:Tina's. B: Gabby's

Step-by-step explanation:

Luckly the two people are using the same unit to measure both time (in weeks) and height (in inches), so no conversion needed.

At this point, let's start dealing with the questions.

A. They bought the plants at week 0.

For Tina, we calculate [tex]f(0) = 0+1.5 = 1.5[/tex]

For Gabby, we scout the table till we find week 0 and check the corrisponing value: it's (0; 1) Since 1 is smaller than 0, at start Tina plant was taller.

B. The easiest way would be to stare at Gabby's table for a bit, and notice that each increase is 2 more than the previous, and the progression starts at 1. We can write it as an equation as [tex]g(x) = 2x+1[/tex]. If you confront with Tina's growth, you can tell that Gabby's plant grows twice as fast - the slope is double. Else, you can see that even just after one week, Tina's plant will be 2.5 in tall, while Gabby's outgrew hers already. That's possible only if the plant is growing faster.

work out the m and c for the line 3y+2x=-1

Answers

Answer:

m = -2/3 and b = -1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Write the equation of this line in slope-intercept form.  Then m = slope and b = y-intercept and the basic equation is y = mx + b.

Solving 3y+2x=-1 for y, we get 3y = -2x - 1, or y = (-2/3)x - 1/3

Here we can easily see that m = -2/3 and b = -1/3.

So first we know that [tex]AB=DF[/tex] and of which [tex]DF[/tex] is the Hypotenuse of triangle [tex]DE F[/tex].

Since the hypotenuse is equal to one of the legs of the 2nd triangle, we cannot use any rule that has Side in it as they are both not really getting us anywhere.

We do know that [tex]<ABC=<DE F[/tex] as they are both 90 degrees.

As we don't have enough proof, these triangles are not congruent as we would need to do/prove rule RHS.

So first, Paul has a number that he got before he multiplied it, we can call that [tex]p[/tex], and for his answer after doubling it. we'll call it [tex]n[/tex].

So with this information, we know that [tex]n=13.1[/tex] so we can use that to make an equation.

We can solve it by first dividing on both sides and getting our answer.

A group of adults and kids went to see a movie. Tickets cost $8 each for adults and $5 each for kids. The group paid $59 in total. There were 10 people in the group.
Find the number of adults and kids in the group.



A
2 adults and 8 kids
B
3 adults and 7 kids
C
4 adults and 6 kids
D
5 adults and 5 kids

Answers

The answer is Letter B.
Answer:
(B) 3 Adults and 7 Kids
Explanation:
The first thing we have to do is define variables:
X = adult
Y = kids
Next we will create equations for the information given:
8X + 5Y = 59
X + Y = 10
So to determine the answer we must combine the equations.
X = 10 - Y
8(10 - Y) + 5Y = 59
Distribute the 8
80 -8Y + 5Y = 59
Move the 80 to the other side and combined like terms
-3Y = -21
Divide by -3
Y = 7
Plug Y into an original equation
X + 7 = 10
Subtract 7
X = 3
Double check by plugging both variables into the other original equation
8(3) + 5(7) = 59
24 + 35 = 59
59 = 59
Therefore, there are 3 adults and 7 kids. (B)
