Malachy and Paul win some money and share it in the ratio 2:1. Malachy gets £24 more than Paul. How much did they get altogether?

Step-by-step explanation:

Malachy's money = 2x

Paul's money = x

=> 2x - x = 24 => x= 24

Total money = 3x = 72

the answer is b: 18

step-by-step explanation:

use the pythagorean theorem to .

a^2+b^2=c^2

plug 18 for "r"

the 2 legs are 18 and 24

18^2+24^2=c^2

324+576=c^2

900=c^2

c=30

30-12=18

18 is the radius
