Answer:

£42

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the money they share be x

Hence, 5:3 in the ratio Carly and James

Meaning Carly gets 5/ (5+3) × x = 5/8 x

But 5/8 x= £70

Meaning x = £70 × 8/5 = £112

But James gets 3/8 × x = 3/8 × £112

= £42

I have a map where indy and ft. Wayne are 3 centimeters apart. Kokomo and indy are 1.5 cm apart on the map. If i know that indy
marta [7]

Indy and kokomo will be 60 miles apart in real life.

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

On the map, Indy and ft. Wayne are 3 cm apart and Kokomo and Indy are 1.5 cm apart.

So, <u>the ratio </u>of the distance between Indy and ft. Wayne to the distance between Kokomo and Indy will be:  3: 1.5 = 30:15= 2:1

Now, lets assume that real distance between Indy and ft. Wayne is  2x cm and real distance between Kokomo and Indy is  x  cm.

Given that, the real distance between Indy and ft. Wayne is 120 miles.

That means....

2x= 120\\ \\ x= \frac{120}{2}=60

So, Indy and kokomo will be 60 miles apart in real life.

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

The number of small mowers are 19 and the large mowers are 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A garden supply store sells two types of lawn mowers. Total sales of mowers for the year were $8379.70. The total number of mowers sold the 30. The small mower cost $249.99 and the large mower costs $329.99.

Now, to find the number of each type of mower sold.

Let the number of small mower be x.

And the number of large mower be  y.

So, total number of mowers are:

x+y=30

x=30-y\ \ \ ....(1)

Now, the total sales of mowers are:

249.99(x)+329.99(y)=8379.70

Substituting the value of x from equation (1) we get:

249.99(30-y)+329.99y=8379.70

7499.7-249.99y+329.99y=8379.70

7499.7+80y=8379.70

<em>Subtracting both sides by 7499.7 we get:</em>

80y=880

<em>Dividing both sides by 80 we get:</em>

y=11.

The number of large mower = 11.

Now, to get the number of small mowers we substitute the value of y  in equation ( 1 ):

x=30-y\\x=30-11\\x=19.

The number of small mower = 19.

Therefore, the number of small mowers are 19 and the large mowers are 11.

The ratio of money in Obi's wallet to Rudy's wallet one day was 5:2. Obi spent ?20 that day. Obi now had ?8 less than Rudy. How
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

  Altogether, they had ?28

Step-by-step explanation:

Had Obi spent only ?12, they would have been even. Thus ?12 is the same as 5-2 = 3 "ratio units". So, each "ratio unit" is worth ?12/3 = ?4.

Then Obi started the day with 5·4 = 20, and Obi started the day with 2·4 = 8. Obi ended with 0, which is 8 less than Rudy.

Altogether, they started with 20 + 8 = 28 of whatever a ? is.
