Peter & Alex share a lottery win of £4450 in the ratio 4 : 1. Peter then shares his part between himself, his wife & their son in the ratio 1 : 6 : 3. How much more does his wife get over their son?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

His wife gets $1068 more than his son.

Step-by-step explanation:

Peter and Alex:

Peter gets (4)/(4+5) = (4)/(5) of the total amount.

(4*4450)/(5) = 3560

Peter gets $3560. He divides with his wife and son.

Peter gets (1)/(1+6+3) = (1)/(10) of the amount, the wife gets (6)/(1+6+3) = (6)/(10) and the son gets (3)/(1+6+3) = (3)/(10)

Wife:

(6*3560)/(10) = 2136

His wife gets $2136

Son:

(3*3560)/(10) = 1068

How much more does his wife get over their son?

2136 - 1068 = 1068

His wife gets $1068 more than his son.

For what value of x is the rational expression below undefined 2x+4/x-7

Answers

Answer:

x=7

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

(2x+4)/(x-7)

we know that

In the given expression the denominator can not be equal to zero

therefore

To find the value of x for which the expression is undefined. equate the denominator to zero

x-7=0

Solve for x

Adds 7 both sides

x-7+7=0+7

x=7

A rational expression is undefined when the denominator equals zero, so we need to make the denominator equal to zero. Set it to zero and solve:
x - 7 = 0
Add seven to both sides:
x = 7

And there's your answer!

Which inequality best represents that ice cream at −5°C is cooler than ice cream at 4°C?−4°C > 5°C
−4°C < 5°C
4°C < −5°C
4°C > −5°C

Answers

(<) this means less than 
(>) this means greater than
So since the question doesnt say anything about -4°C we can automatically cross out A and B 
They are both negative! but when you have a negative. Its going to be less than a positive 
So this means 4°C is greater than -5°C 
or in other words
D.) 4°C > -5°C

Find last year's salary if, after a 5% pay raise, this year's salary is $38,325?

Answers

To answer the question above,
This means that
This year my salary is: 105% ( up 5% from 100%) ;
Salary = $31500 
and last year. 100% ( base year) ; Let the Salary = $x 

Now let us solve, 
x / 100 = 31500/105 
so x = 31500 * 100/105 =
$30 000
I hope my answer helped you I've included the formula on how I got the answer.
5% of 38325 is 1916.25 

subtract the answer from this years salary 

38325 
- 1916.25 
 that would be 36408.75

now add comma and dollar sign and  last year's salary is $36,408.75
