Answer:

See below ~

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the father's age be x and son's age be y.

Equations formed :

  1. x = y + 25
  2. x - 10 = 6(y - 10)

Substitute value of x from Equation 1 in Equation 2.

  • y + 25 - 10 = 6(y - 10)
  • y + 15 = 6y - 60
  • 6y - y = 15 + 60
  • 5y = 75
  • y = 15

Solution :

  1. Son = y = 15 years
  2. Father = y + 25 = 15 + 25 = 40 years

Answer:

Present age of son = 15 years

& Present age of father = 40 years

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Let the son's present age be x years

  • -> Father's present age = (x + 25) years

  • 10 years ago:
  • Son's age = (x - 10) years

  • Father's age = (x +25 -10) = (x +15) years

  • It is given that: 10 years ago father was six times as old as his son

  • -> x + 15 = 6(x - 10)

  • -> x + 15 = 6x - 60

  • -> x- 6x = - 60 -15

  • -> -5x = - 75

  • -> x = -75/(-5)

  • -> x = 15

  • -> x + 25 = 15 + 25 = 40

  • -> Present age of son = 15 years

  • & Present age of father = 40 years.

The USS Enterprise was 1,123 feet in length.
faust18 [17]

Answer:

The total length is 1123 feet.

a) if the model is 30 inches long, the first thing we need to do is write inches in feets, so 1 feet is equivalent to 12 inches.

so 30 inches are 30/12 = 2.5 feets.

the scale is the ratio between the feets in the the two lengths.

1123/2.5 = 449.2

so the scale is 1:449.2

so each feet in the model is equivalent to 449.2 feets in the enterprise.

b) if the model is 2 feet long, then:

1123/2 = 561.5

the scale is 1:561.5

so each feet in the model is equivalent to 561.5 feets in the enterprise.

In a hydraulic lift, a 1400 N force is applied to a 0.5 m2 piston. Calculate the minimum surface area of the large piston to lif
dexar [7]

Answer:

1.8m^2 approx

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

P1= 1400N

A1=0.5m^2

P2=5000 N

A2=??

Let us apply the formula to calculate the Area A2

P1/A1= P2/A2

substitute

1400/0.5= 5000/A2

cross multiply

1400*A2= 5000*0.5

1400*A2= 2500

A2= 2500/1400

A2= 1.78

Hence the Area is 1.8m^2 approx
