Two people wrote a book together. They agreed to share the royalties so that the senior author received twice as much as the junior author. What is each author's share of a $2400 royalty check?

A book royalty is the amount that a publisher pays an Author in exchange for the rights to publish their book. Royalties are calculated as a percentage of book sales. For example, an author might earn 7.5% royalties on every paperback sold

Step-by-step explanation:

Junior author = $800

Senior author = $1600

Step-by-step explanation:

The check is split between the senior author and junior author in the ratio of 2:1

2:1 = $2400

Add the ratios together:

2 + 1 = 3

3 parts = $2400

Find one part of the total check by dividing both sides by 3:

1 part = $800

answer:   28.56 feet (approx)

step-by-step explanation:

since, triangle abc has measure of angle c equal to 55 degrees, measure of angle abc equal to 90 degrees, and length of bc equal to 20 feet.

we have to find out the measurement of segment ab.

therefore, tan 55° =

but bc = 20 feet.

⇒ tan 55 ° =  

⇒ ab = 20 × tan 55 °

⇒ ab = 20 × 1.42814800674

⇒ ab = 28.5629601348   ≈ 28.56 feet
