Musa and Akiola together invest $52,000 in a business and agree to share the profit in the ratio of their investment. Musa receives $5,000 and Akiola receives $8,000 as a profit at the end of the first year. How much did each invest?

Money invested by Musa and Akiola together in a buisness=$52,000

Profit earned by Musa =$5,000

Profit earned by Akiola=$8,000

Ratio of profit earned by Musa to the profit earned by Akiola:-

Now, let us simplify the ratio of their profits:-

Thus, the ratio of profit earned by Musa to the profit earned by Akiola=5:8

The ratio of profit earned by Musa to the profit earned by Akiola=The ratio of money invested by Musa to the money invested by Akiola

The ratio of money invested by Musa to the money invested by Akiola=5:8

Money invested by Musa :-

Thus, the money invested by Musa =$20,000

Money invested by Akiola:-

Thus, the money invested by Akiola =$32,000

As the sum of their investments add up to form $52,000 we can conclude that we have found out the correct amount of money each of them invested in the business.

Therefore, the money invested by Musa in the buisness =$20,000 and the money invested by Akiola in the buisness=$32,000

step-by-step explanation:

b. 18

step-by-step explanation:

so the equation for this is:

ab^2=ac⋅ad

ab being the top length of 6 and ac being the length of 2 and ad being the length of x. let's plug into the equation:

6^2 = 2x

now lets just solve for x:

36 = 2x

18 = x
