Total value $7 any combo that totals 3.50 is a 'fair' 1/2
50 Snickers = .50
50 MW =2.0
50 R = 1.0 Total = 3.50
There are a 'buh-jillion' ways to split this to obtain 3.50 value....this is just ONE!
Another example:
100 S = 1.0
50 MW = 2.0
25 R = .50 Total 3.50
Each S=.01 Each MW=.04 Each R=.05
TOTAL VALUE 100x.01 + 100x.04 + 100x.05 = 10
25 S = .25 25 MW=1.0 65 R = 3.0
Total value of Jane's division = 4.25 (in Salvadore's eyes) ....A little LESS than half!
$ 18 4 slices of P and 4 slices of V
If he thinks veggie is three times more valuable than pepperoni
then 4V(3) + 4P = 18
Each V = 3.375 P= 1.125 (in his sick mind)
1/2 V + 1/2 P = 2.25
Substitute x = 1 in to any of the equations ....then you can find 'y'....
Welcome!
Add the two equations together to get:
4x = 4 so x = 1 can you get the rest from this?
Let F= registration fee
People who paid the fee = (124-50) = 74
74F = total fees collected
Let c= # children then 281-c = # Adults
1.5 c = money from child tix 4(281-c) = money from adult tix
1.5 c + 4(281-c) = 734
1.5 c =1124 - 4c = 734
-2.5c = -390
c=156 children
281-c = 125 Adults
M=4D presently
in 20 years:
M+20 = 2(D+20)
M+20 = 2D +40
M = 2D + 20 From the first equation 1/2M = 2D Substitute this
M=1/2M + 20
1/2M = 20
M= 40 D=10
And in 20 years
M= 60 D=30
