Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Discussion

The object of this is make w by itself on one side of the equation.

Equation

x = 3 (y + w) - 1               Add 1 to both sides of the equation.

x + 1 = 3(y + w) - 1 + 1      Combine

x + 1 = 3(y + w)                 Remove the Brackets

x + 1 = 3y + 3w                 Notice y and w are affected by the 3. Subtract 3y

x + 1 - 3y = 3y-3y + 3w   Combine

x + 1  = 3w                       Divide both sides by 3

(x +1)/3 = 3w/3  

(x + 1)/3 = w

Answer: (x + 1)/3 = w

A man is 32 years old and his son is 5 years old. How many years hence will the
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the current ages:

father= 32 yrs old

son=5 yrs old

-------

4(5+x) = 32+x

20+4x = 32+x

4x-x = 32–20

3x =12

x = 12/3

x = 4 years

------------------------------------

after the 4 years later the farther age will be 36 ( 32+4 = 36)

the son will be 9 ( 5+4= 9 years)

the x presents how the father will be after 4 times the age of the son

Worker A finishes the job in 10 hours; worker B finishes it in 12 hours, and worker C finishes it in 15 hours.
nika2105 [10]
A=1/10, b=1/12, c=1/15  (these are the rates for each worker...)

1.)

2(1/10)+4(1/12)+t/15=1

1/5+1/3+t/15=1

(3+5+t)/15=1

3+5+t=15

8+t=15

t=7

So it would take c 7 hours to finish the job.

2.)

1/40-1/60

(3-2)/120

1/120

The drain rate is 1/60.  So you will need to find t when the tank is empty, while starting at 2/3 capacity...

2/3-t/60=0

(40-t)/60=0

40-t=0

t=40

It would take 40 minutes to empty the tank when it is 2/3 full.
