£580 is divided between Sushil, Fiona & Pip so that Sushil gets twice as much as Fiona, and Fiona gets three times as much as Pip. How much does Fiona get?

Fiona gets £ 174

Step-by-step explanation:

Ths problem has three unknowns: the amounts each person gets. So let's identify each amount with a letter to write them in mathematical equation form:

Amount Sushil gets is : "x"

Amount Fiona gets is : "y"

Amount Pip gets is : "z"

Now we write three equations based on the information we have:

1) the addition of all these amounts should equal the 580 total:

x + y + z = 580

2) Sushil (x) gets twice as much as Fiona (y):

x = 2 y

3) Fiona (y) gets three times as much as Pip (z):

y = 3 z

So we can write the first equation in terms of "z" only, by using the appropriate substitutions in the intermediate stes:

Replace every instance of "y" with "3 z":

Equation 2 can give then "x" in terms of "z" as well:

x = 2 y = 2 (3 z) = 6 z

Then Eq 1 becomes:

6 z + 3 z + z = 580

10 z = 580

and therefore:

z = £ 58

Now Fiona's amount (y) is "3 times z", therefore:

y = 3 * 58 = £ 174

the first one, all those points on the line just make a strait line.

b) k’(6, 4); l’(3, 3)

step-by-step explanation:

a 270° clockwise rotation maps every point (x, y) to (y, -x). (it negates the x-coordinate and then switches it and the y-coordinate.)

this means the endpoints of the side congruent to kl, k' and l', would be mapped as:

k'(-4, 6)→(6, 4)

l'(-3, 3)→(3, 3)
