A man is five times as old as his son. Four years ago the man was thirteen times as old as his son.
Find their present ages.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Age of son = 6 years

Age of man = 5×6 = 30 years

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN :-

A man is 5 times as old as his son. (In Present)4 years ago , the man was 13 times as old as his son

TO FIND :-

The present ages of the man & his son.

SOLUTION :-

Let the present age of son be 'x'.

⇒ Present age of man = 5x

4 years ago ,

Age of son = (Present age of son) - 4 = x - 4

Age of man = (Present age of man) - 4 = 5x - 4

The man was thirteen times as old as his son. So,

[tex]=> 5x - 4 = 13(x - 4)[/tex]

Now , solve the equation.

Open the brackets in R.H.S.

[tex]=> 5x - 4 = 13x - 52[/tex]

Take 5x to R.H.S. and -52 to L.H.S. Also , take care of their signs because they are getting displaced from L.H.S. to R.H.S. or vice-versa.

[tex]=> 13x - 5x = 52 - 4[/tex]

[tex]=> 8x = 48[/tex]

Divide both the sides by 8

[tex]=> \frac{8x}{8} = \frac{48}{8}[/tex]

[tex]=> x = 6[/tex]

CONCLUSION :-

Age of son = 6 years

Age of man = 5×6 = 30 years

Answers

Answer:

7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The values 15ft, 13ft and x are the sides of a right triangle;

According to pythagoras theorem;

15² = 13²+x²

x² = 15² - 13²

x² = 225 -169

x² = 56

x = √56

x = 7.48

Hence the value of x to the nearest tenth is 7.5 to the nearest tenth

Daniel drew a toy from a treasure chest containing 30 different toys. He selected a bouncy ball without replacement and then selected a key chain. What is the probability this could occur

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Pr = \frac{1}{870}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]n =30[/tex]

Required

Probability of selecting 2 toys of different types

From the question, we understand that all toys are different i.e. 1 of each type.

And the selection is without replacement;

So, after the first toy is selected; there are n - 1 toys left.

So, the probability is:

[tex]Pr = \frac{1}{n} * \frac{1}{n - 1}[/tex]

Substitute [tex]n =30[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac{1}{30} * \frac{1}{30- 1}[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac{1}{30} * \frac{1}{29}[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac{1}{30*29}[/tex]

[tex]Pr = \frac{1}{870}[/tex]

A 25 foot ladder is placed against a building at a point 21 feet from the ground find the distance from the base of the building to the base of the ladder

Answers

Answer:

The distance from the base of the building to the base of the ladder is 13.56 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be solved using Pythagorus theorem.

If the length of the ladder is taken as the hypotenuse and the distance from the building as the base of the triangle then the altitude can be found out by using

c²= a²+b²

Where c is the hypotenuse and b is the base and a is the altitude

Putting the values

25²= a²+ 21²

a²= 25²-21²

a²= 625-441

a²= 184

a= √184= 13.56 feet

The distance from the base of the building to the base of the ladder is 13.56 feet

has a y-intercept of (0,2) and passes through the point (3,128)

Answers

Answer:

y = 42x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line is expressed as y = mx+b

Slope = y2-y1/x2-x1

Slope = 128 - 2/3-0

Slope m = 126/3

Slope = 42

Since the y intercept is (0, 2), hence b = 2

Get the equation;

Recall that y = mx+b

y = 42x + 2

This gives the required equation

Answers

Answer:

1) 2 nonreal complex roots

2) 1 Real Solution

3) 16

4) Reflected, narrower by a factor of 2/5, slides right 4 units and slides up 6 (units)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The graph does not intercept the x-axis, therefore, there are no real solutions at the point y = 0

We get;

y = a·x² + b·x + c

At y = 6, x = -2

Therefore;

6 = a·(-2)² - 2·b + c = 4·a - 2·b + c

6 = 4·a - 2·b + c...(1)

At y = 8, x = 0

8 = a·(0)² + b·0 + c

∴ c = 8...(2)

Similarly, we have;

At y = 8, x = -4

8 = a·(-4)² - 4·b + c = 16·a - 4·b + 8

16·a - 4·b = 0

∴ b = 16·a/4 = 4·a

b = 4·a...(3)

From equation (1), (2) and (3), we have;

6 = 4·a - 2·b + c

∴ 6 = b - 2·b + 8 = -b + 8

6 - 8 = -b

∴ -b = -2

b = 2

b = 4·a

∴ a = b/4 = 2/4 = 1/2

The equation is therefor;

y = (1/2)·x² + 2·x + 8

Solving we get;

x = (-2 ± √(2² - 4 × (1/2) × 8))/(2 × (1/2))

x =( -2 ± √(-12))/1 = -2 ± √(-12)

Therefore, we have;

2 nonreal complex roots

2) Give that the graph of the function touches the x-axis once, we have;

1 Real Solution

3) The given function is f(x) = 2·x² + 8·x + 6

The general form of the quadratic function is f(x) = a·x² + b·x + c

Comparing, we have;

a = 2, b = 8, c = 6

The discriminant of the function, D = b² - 4·a·c, therefore, for the function, we have;

D = 8² - 4 × 2 × 6 = 16

The discriminant of the function, D = 16

4.) The given function is g(x) = (-2/5)·(x - 4)² + 6

The parent function of a quadratic equation is y = x²

A vertical translation is given by the following equation;

y = f(x) + b

A horizontal to the right by 'a' translation is given by an equation of the form; y = f(x - a)

A vertical reflection is given by an equation of the form; y = -f(x) = -x²

A narrowing is given by an equation of the form; y = b·f(x), where b < 1

Therefore, the transformations of g(x) from the parent function are;

g(x) is a reflection of the parent function, with the graph of g(x) being narrower by 2/5 than the graph of the parent function. The graph of g(x) is shifted right by 4 units and is then slides up by 6 units.

Find the x intercepts of the graph of -6x + 5y =24. State your answers as while numbers or as improper fractions in simplest form.

Answers

Answer:

x-intercept: -4

y-intercept: 24/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly you have to isolate the y:

-6x + 5y = 24

5y = 6x + 24

y = (6x +24)/5

Now, just think about the graph: when the function touch the x-axis, the value of y is equal to 0, and when the function touch the y-axis, the value of x is 0, so just put they in the function:

y = (6•0 + 24)/5

y = 24/5

0 = (6x + 24)/5

5•0 = 6x +24

0 = 6x +24

-6x = 24

x = 24/-6

x = -4

(angle sums triangles)

Answers

Answer:

the answer for the first is 22°

the answer for the second is 83°

Answer:

x = 22°x = 83°

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

The sum of all the interior angles of a triangle is equal to 180°. So, 90°+29°+(39°+x) = 180°.

2.

For the triangle on the right, the measure of 1 angle is not given. To find that out, make use of the angle in 112°: 180°-112° = 68°.

Then, we are able to find x by angle sum of triangles.

68°+29°+x = 180°.
