Answer:
D- It would quadruple
Step-by-step explanation:
x - Ram's age now
Ram is half his father's age now, so his father's age is two times Ram's age:
2x - Ram's father age now
x - 10 - Ram's age ten years ago
2x - 10 - Ram's father age ten years ago
ten years ago he was one third his father's age so his father's age was three times Ram's age:
2x - 10 = 3•(x - 10)
2x - 10 = 3x - 30
-10 + 30 = 3x - 2x
20 = x
2x = 2•20 = 40
Answer:
<u>Ram is 20 years old now, Ram's father is 40 years old now.</u>

<span>We can
use the Pythagorean Theorem (A² + B² = C²) to solve for the lengths of the
sides. We know that the diagonal, C, is 30 meters long, so C² = 900 meters.
We know that since the park is square, A² + B² = 2A² = 2B²
900 = 2A²
A^2 = 450
Taking the square root of 450, we find that the lengths of A and B are
roughly 21.2 meters.</span>
