Last year $48,000 of a certain store's profit was shared by its 2 owners and their 10 employees. Each of the 2 owners received 3 times as much as each of their 10 employees. How much did each owner receive from the $48,000 ?

$9000

Explanation:

Let x = the amount (in dollars) that each employee received

Let y = the amount (in dollars) that each owner received

It is also stated that each owner received 3 times as much as each employee

Thus, we can write: y = 3x

Last year $48,000 of the store's profit was shared between its 2 owners and their 10 employees.

So, the total amount received by the 2 owners would be = y + y = 2y

The total amount received by the 10 employees also would be = 10x

we can then write: 10x + 2y = 48,000

At this point, we have 2 linear equations:

y = 3x

10x + 2y = 48,000

Substituting y=3x in the second equation

10x + 2(3x) = 48,000

10x + 6x = 48,000

16x = 48,000

X = 48,000/16

X = 3,000

Remember, y = 3x

Y = 3,000 * 3

Y = 9,000

So, each each OWNER received $9000

there is no possible way mgk stands a chance with the greatest white rapper of all time. eminem killshots had more bars than rap devil and the reason mgk is doing all this is cause he not getting attention anymore til the release of rap devil and the disses he is putting on eminem. now rap devil was more fire than killshot so mgk might won the battle with rap devil but eminem won the war with killshot.
