Q 1)

a) No of sheep = 480

b) 8 : 11

c) 11 : 3

Q 2)

Each person will receive: $360,000, $270,000 and $180,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of sheep to cattle = 8 : 3

Let the number of sheep be 8x

And number of cattle be 3x

a)

No of cattle = 180 (Given)

Therefore,

3x = 180

x = 180/3

x = 60

Therefore, 8x = 8*60 = 480

No of sheep = 480

b)

Total animals = 180 + 480 = 660

Ratio of sheep to the total number of animals

= 480 : 660

= 8 : 11

c)

Ratio of total animals to the number of cattle

= 660 : 180

= 11 : 3

Q 2) Let each person will receive 4x, 3x and 2x dollars.

Therefore,

4x + 3x + 2x = 810,000

9x = 810000

x = 810000/9

x = 90,000

Therefore,

4x = 4*90,000 = $360,000

3x = 3*90,000 = $270,000

2x = 2*90,000 = $180,000

So, each person will receive $360,000, $270,000 and $180,000.

step-by-step explanation:

6 (donuts) divided by 3 is 2.

so 2/3 means 2 times 2, which is 4/6.

you get two and your friend gets four.

y -5 = (-1/4)(x + 8)
