Two partners are starting a new business. The total investment is $52,000. Their investments are in the ratio 3:7. How much does each investor contribute?

One partner will pay $15600 and the other would pay $36400

Step-by-step explanation:

52000 ÷ (3 + 7) =

52000 ÷ 10 =

5200

5200 x 3 = 15600

5200 x 7 = 36400

1.4

2.3

step-by-step explanation:

the formula for the constant of variation is

y= kx

divide each side by x

y/x =kx/x

y/x =k

we know a and y

1.   y/x = k

4/1 =4

check the other values to make sure they are the same

8/2 = 4   12/3 =4   and 16/4 =4  

the constant of variation is 4

2.   y/x = k

3/1 =3

check the other values to make sure they are the same

6/2 = 3   9/3 =3   and 12/4 =3  

the constant of variation is 3

true
