ASHA 777 [7]2 years ago

Answer:

Molly would be 1 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

"In three years..."

(m+3) will be Molly's age then.

(h+3) will be Heidi's age then.

(h+3) = 2(m+3) :: given.

.

Subsitute what we know about m, which is it equal h-4.

.

(h+3) = 2(m+3)

(h+3) = 2m + 6

substitute m=h-4

(h+3) = 2(h-4) +6

h +3 = 2(h -4) +6

h +3 = 2h -8 +6

h +3 = 2h -2

h = 2h -8 +3

-h = -5

h = 5

Heidi is 5 years old now.

.

m = h-4

m = 5-4

m = 1

Molly is 1 years old now.

Find the distance between (5, -4) and (-1, -2)
Arisa [49]

Answer: The distance is sqrt(40).

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use the Pythagorean Theorem (a^2 + b^2 = c^2)

(Look at the image I attached)

Let's set a = 2 and b = 6. The mystery side is c, which is opposite to the right angle that is formed when you draw perpendicular lines from each of the points.

(2)^2 + (6)^2 = c^2 <--- First, we need to simplify

4 + 36 = c^2

40 = c^2 <--- Now, we need to take the square root of both sides.

c = sqrt(40)

So, the distance between (5, -4) and (-1, -2) is sqrt(40). I recommend looking at some videos on Khan Academy if you need more help! Let me know if you want me to attach a link that you can visit.

3 hours and 20 minutes minus 1 hour and 48 minuets equals an hour and 32 minutes. There are 60 minuets in an hour and 60 divided by 32 is 0.53. This means that your final answer is:
D. 1.53

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

81 ft^2

Discussion:

The area of a square is (length of a side)^2.  In this case,

Area = 9^2 = 81
