Musa and Akiola together invest $52,000 in a business and agree to share the profit in the ratio of their investment. Musa receives $5,000 and Akiola receives $8,000 as a profit at the end of the first year. How much did each invest?

Answers

Answer 1

Money invested by Musa and Akiola together in a buisness=$52,000

Profit earned by Musa =$5,000

Profit earned by Akiola=$8,000

Ratio of profit earned by Musa to the profit earned by Akiola:-

[tex] = 5000 : 8000[/tex]

Now, let us simplify the ratio of their profits:-

[tex] = 5000 : 8000[/tex]

[tex] = \frac{5000}{8000} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{5000 \div 1000}{8000 \div 1000} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{5}{8} [/tex]

[tex] = \bold{ 5 : 8}[/tex]

Thus, the ratio of profit earned by Musa to the profit earned by Akiola=5:8

It is given that :-

The ratio of profit earned by Musa to the profit earned by Akiola=The ratio of money invested by Musa to the money invested by Akiola

Which means :-

The ratio of money invested by Musa to the money invested by Akiola=5:8

Then :-

Money invested by Musa :-

[tex] = \frac{5}{5 + 8} \: \: of \: \: 52000[/tex]

[tex] = \frac{5}{13} \: \: of \: \: 52000[/tex]

[tex] = \frac{5}{13} \times 52000[/tex]

[tex] = \frac{5 \times 52000}{13} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{260000}{13} [/tex]

[tex] = \bold{\$ \: 20,000}[/tex]

Thus, the money invested by Musa =$20,000

Money invested by Akiola:-

[tex] = \frac{8}{5 + 8} \: \: of \: \: 52000[/tex]

[tex] = \frac{8}{13} \: \: of \: \: 52000[/tex]

[tex] = \frac{8}{13} \times 52000[/tex]

[tex] = \frac{8 \times 52000}{13} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{416000}{13} [/tex]

[tex] = \bold{ \$ \: 32,000}[/tex]

Thus, the money invested by Akiola =$32,000

As the sum of their investments add up to form $52,000 we can conclude that we have found out the correct amount of money each of them invested in the business.

Therefore, the money invested by Musa in the buisness =$20,000 and the money invested by Akiola in the buisness=$32,000

b. 90°, 45°, 45°
c. 152°, 14°, 14°
d. 28°, 76°, 76°

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  d.  28°, 76°, 76°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the "non-adjacent" interior angles of the triangle is equal to the exterior angle, so is 152°. If those angles are congruent, each is half of 152°, or 76°. The remaining angle is the supplement to 152°, so is 180-152 = 28 degrees.

The interior angles are 28°, 76°, 76°.

Answers

Answer:

A) Given that the figure is a rectangle, it has a rotational symmetry and by rotating the figure 180° about the center of the figure, the preimage and image will coincide

The figure also has a line symmetry for the vertical line x = 5, and a line symmetry for the horizontal line y = 5

Therefore the figure has both symmetry

B) The transformation that maps the figure unto itself are therefore;

1) Rotating the figure 180° about the point (5, 5) which is the center of the figure

2) Reflection of the figure across the line x = 5 and also reflection of the figure across the line y = 5

The last time Robert filled up his car with gas, he paid $24.50 for 7 gallons. This time, he needs 15 gallons. If the price is the same, how much will he pay?

Answers

Answer:

$52.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up the ratio:

[tex]\frac{24.50}{7}[/tex]

Simplify in order to find the cost per gallon.

The cost per gallon is $3.50 because 7 divided by 7 is one and 24.50 divided by seven is 3.5.

Now you have this left:

[tex]\frac{3.50}{1}[/tex]

Multiply the denominator by 15 since Robert needs 15 gallons.

Then, multiply the top by 15 because whatever you do to the denominator, you have to do to the top.

Now you have this left:

[tex]\frac{3.5}{1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{52.50}{15}[/tex]

Therefore, Robert needs to pay $52.50 in order to recieve 15 gallons of gasoline.

Answer:

3.6

Step-by-step explanation:

260% of 6

100%= 0.06

100% times 2 is 0.06 X 2= 0.12

200%= 0.12

10%= 0.6

60%= 3.6

200% + 60%=

0.12 + 3.6= 3.72

The closest to 3.72 is 3.6

Step-by-step explanation:

can someone find the slope and y intercept ?

Answers

Answer:

Slope = -5/4

Y-Intercept = (0, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Step One: Determine two points.

In order to find slope, we have to find the amount of horizontal units (left and right) and vertical units (up and down) that two points are apart. We can choose any two points along this line to compare, so I'll use (0, -4) and (5, 0) since they align perfectly on the grid.

Step Two: Find the difference between the two points.

To find the differences, all we have to do is subtract the second point's X value from the first point's X value. So in this case, we would subtract 5 from 0, which gives us -5.

Next, we have to find the difference in our Y values, so we'll do the same thing here. We'll have 0 - (-4) (or 0 + 4, since subtracting a negative number is technically just addition), which ends up being 4.

Step Three: Put the differences into slope form.

Our slope form is Y/X, or you can think of it as "Rise/Run". We remember that our Y difference was -5, and our X difference was 4, so our end slope would be -5/4.

Step Four: Find the Y-Intercept

Since you have access to a graph of the line, the easiest way is to look at your graph and find the point where the line crosses the Y-axis (the black, vertical line where X = 0). From the graph, we can tell that the blue line crosses the Y-axis at (0, -4), so our Y-Intercept would be (0, -4)

Jim stands on a dock that is 3 3/4 feet above the lake. He dives down 12 1/2 feet below the dock. What is Jims vertical location relative to the lake surface?

Answers

Given:

Jim stands on a dock that is [tex]3\dfrac{3}{4}[/tex] feet above the lake. He dives down [tex]12\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex] feet below the dock.

To find:

The Jims vertical location relative to the lake surface.

Solution:

We have,

Vertical location of dock relative to the lake surface [tex]=3\dfrac{3}{4}[/tex] feet

He dives down [tex]12\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex] feet below the dock. So,

Vertical location relative to the lake surface [tex]=3\dfrac{3}{4}-12\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{3\times 4+3}{4}-\dfrac{12\times 2+1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{12+3}{4}-\dfrac{24+1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{15}{4}-\dfrac{25}{2}[/tex]

Taking LCM, we get

[tex]=\dfrac{15-50}{4}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{-35}{4}[/tex]

[tex]=-8\dfrac{3}{4}[/tex]

Here, negative sign means Jim location is below the lake surface.

Therefore, Jim is [tex]8\dfrac{3}{4}[/tex] feet below the lake surface.

What is the measure of ∠ABD?

Answers

Answer:

m∠ABD = 114°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given measurements of interior angles are:

m∠D = 2n°

m∠C = 60°

m∠ABD = (4n+6)°

The measurement of exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of two opposite interior angles.

This can be mathematically expressed as:

m∠ABD = m∠C+m∠D

Putting the respective values

[tex]4n+6 = 2n+60\\4n-2n+6 = 60\\2n+6 = 60\\2n = 60-6\\2n = 54\\\frac{2n}{2} = \frac{54}{2}\\n = 27[/tex]

Putting n=27 in (4n+6)°

[tex]=4(27) + 6\\= 108+6 = 114[/tex]

Hence,

m∠ABD = 114°
