Divide 64 in the ratio 5:3

The parts of 64 are 40 and 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us use the ratio method to solve the question

∵ The ratio is 5: 3

→ Find the sum of the two terms of the ratio

∵ 5 + 3 = 8

∵ We want to divide 64 in this ratio

→ By using the ratio method

→  5  :  3  :  8

→  x  :   y  :  64

→ By using cross multiplication

∵ x × 8 = 5 × 64

∴ 8x = 320

→ Divide both sides by 8

∴ x = 40

∵ y × 8 = 3 × 64

∴ 8y = 192

→ Divide both sides by 8

∴ y = 24

∴ The parts of 64 are 40 and 24

2 x^2 -3x+p

sum of roots = 3/2

let other root be x

3+ x = 3/2

x= 3/2 - 3 = -3/2

product of roots = p/2

3× -3/2 = p/2

-9 = p
