First and second place in a contest use a ratio to share a cash prize. When first place pays $100 , second place pays $60. How much does first place pay when second place pays $36? Complete the ratio table to solve the problem

Answers

The amount paid for first place pay when second place pays $36 is $60.

Given

First and second place in a contest uses a ratio to share a cash prize.

When first place pays $100, second place pays $60.

What is the ratio?

The quantitative relation between two amounts shows the number of times one value contains or is contained within the other:

Let, x be the amount paid in the first place when the second-place pays.

Then,

\rm (100)/(60) = (x)/(36)\n\n100 * 36 = x * 60\n\n3600 = 60x\n\nx = (3600)/(60)\n\nx=60

Hence, the amount paid for first place pay when second place pays $36 is $60.

Answer:

y = 0.5x

Step-by-step explanation:

(y)/(x)=a\to y=ax\n\n\text{We have}\ x=1,\ y=0.5.\n\n\text{Substitute:}\n\na=(0.5)/(1)=0.5\n\n\text{Therefore}\ y=0.5x

Answer:

y = 0.5x

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 1; y = 0.5; 0,5 is (1)/(2) of 1

1 * 0.5 would equal 0.5

So, y = 0.5x

Jim, Carla and Tommy are members of the same family. Carla is 5 years older than Jim. Tommy is 6 years older than Carla. The sum of their three ages is 31 years. How old is each one them?

Answers

So,

We'll solve it with only one placeholder, since that's simpler.

Jim's age = J
Carla's age = C
Tommy's age = T

J = base
Carla's age = J + 5
Tommy's age = Carla's age + 6 or J + 5 + 6 or J + 11

Sum of ages = 31
(J) + (J + 5) + (J + 11) = 31

3J + 16 = 31

Subtract 16 from both sides
3J = 15

Divide both sides by 3
J = 5

Carla's age = J + 5
Carla's age = 10

Tommy's age = Carla's age + 6
Tommy's age = 10 + 6 or 16

5 + 10 + 16 = 31
15 + 16 = 31
31 = 31 This checks.

Jim is 5.
Carla is 10.
Tommy is 16.
lets
Jim  x years old
Carla (x+5) years old
Tommy (x+5)+6 years old
sum is x+(x+5)+(x+5)+6=31 years old
3x+16=31
3x=15
x=5 - age of Jim
x+5=5+5=10 - age of Carla
x+5+6=16  - age of Tommy
Answer: 5, 10 and 16 y.o
