Dr. Garica is twice as old as his son. Twenty years ago he was 4 times as old as his son was then. How old are they now?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Let's let g = Dr. Garcia's age and s = his son's age.

g = 2s, right?

 

20 years ago, Dr. Garcia was g - 20 years old.  He was also 4(s - 20), 4 times his son's age 7 years ago.

 

g - 20 = 4(s - 20)

g - 20 = 4s - 80

 

In the first equation, we have g = 2s.  We are going to substitute this g into the second equation.

 

2s - 20 = 4s - 80

       60 = 2s

       s = 30

 

So, his son is 30 and Mr. Garcia is 60. 30 x 2 = 60.

 

20 years ago, his son would have been 10 and Mr. Garcia would have been 40.  10 x 4 = 40.

Answer 2

Answer:

Dr. Garcia's age is 60, and his son's age is 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be Dr. Garcia's age, and y his son's age.

1. Dr. Garcia is twice as old as his son

x = 2 y

2. Twenty years ago, he was 4 times as old as his son was then

x - 20 = 4 (y - 20)

Substitute x in 2 and solve for y:

2 y - 20 = 4 (y - 20)

2 y - 20 = 4 y - 80

- 20 = 2 y - 80

60 = 2 y

y = 30

Put y back into 1:

x = 2 (30)

x = 60

So Dr. Garcia's age is 60, and his son's age is 30.

a circle has a radius of sqrt37 units and is centered at 1.3,-3.5

Answers

Answer:

80

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

(x-1.3)^2 + (y+3.5)^2 = 37

In general, (x-c)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2 where (c,k) is the center and r is the radius.

So if the circle with radius 5 has center (3,-4) then it's equation is:

(x-3)^2 + (y+4)^2 = 25

Notice that the second term is (y+4)^2 because the y-coordinate is -4 and y-(-4) = y+4

Zoe runs a market in the city of Manila. Half of the canned drinks in stock were sold out. Zoe bought 68 more canned drinks to restock her supply. If there is a total of 200 cans now, how many canned drinks were in stock initially?

Answers

Answer:

264 canned drinks

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

canned drinks in stock initially = x

Canned drinks sold out = 1/2 of x

= 1/2x

Canned drinks remaining in stock = x - 1/2x

= 1/2x

New restock = 68 canned drinks

Total drinks in stock presently = Canned drinks remaining in stock + New restock

200 = 1/2x + 68

200 - 68 = 1/2x

132 = 1/2x

x = 132 ÷ 1/2

= 132 × 2/1

x = 264 canned drinks

canned drinks in stock initially = x = 264 canned drinks

Jodie has 68 red marbles and 272 blue marbles. What percent of Jodie’s marbles are red?

Answers

Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this we need to find the total number of marbles

             

272 + 68 ->  340

Now we divide 340 by 68 to get

68/ 340 = .2

Multiply by 100 because percent means PER 100 so to get this decimal in percent form multiply by 100

.2 * 100 = 20%

20% of Jodie's marbles are red

Answer:

  a.  21

Step-by-step explanation:

The external part of the hypotenuse of the right triangle is shown. The full length of the hypotenuse is 9+20 = 29. The Pythagorean theorem can be used to find x.

  x^2 +20^2 = 29^2

  x^2 = 841 -400

  x = √441

  x = 21

__

Alternate solution

The diameter of the circle is 2·20 = 40 units, so the product of distances from the external vertex to the opposite sides of the circle along the secant is (9)(40+9). The product of the distances along the tangent is x·x. These two products are equal, so ...

  x^2 = 9(49)

  x = (√9)(√49) = 3·7

  x = 21

Tina paid $6.60 for some $0.15 stamps and some $0.20 stamps. She bought 37 stamps in all. How many of each kind did she buy?
PLS HELP

Answers

Answer:

1 set of A= $0.15

1 set of B= $0.20

Total Stamps bought = 37

Total purchase = 37

Let X= Set A of $0.15 each

Y= Set B of $0.20 each

x+y = 37----------X=37-Y

0.15X + 0.20Y = 6.60

0.15(37-Y) + 0.20Y = 6.60

5.55- 0.15Y + 0.20Y =6.60

0.05 Y = 6.60-5. 55

Y=1.05/ 0.05= 21
