(b) $2 (a) $2 30° (c) Questions b. Is the cut shown in Fig. 3 - 21 (c) a possible 50-50 cut that David might have made as the divider? If so, describe the share Paula should choose and give the value (as a percent) of that share to Paula. If the cut is not a 50-50 cut, give the values of the two shares to David. c. Is the cut shown in Fig. 3 - 21 (d) a possible 50-50 cut that David might have made as the divider? If so, describe the share Paula should choose and give the value (as a percent) of that share to Paula. If the cut is not a 50-50 cut, give the values of the two shares to David. Solution for B For David the dollar value of s₁ will be $1 for strawberry cake and $x for chocolate cake, the total value of $1 is $+$(z) = Sz That is, 40% of the total For David the dollar value of $2 will be $x for vanilla cake and $x for chocolate cake, the total value of $2 is $x+8(a) = $1.5z That is 60% of the total. It is not a 50 - 50 cut.
