Answer:

41 year old

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose x is the total age before the ninth person joins. x/8=44 then the new persons age is a then x+a/9=47 so you subsitute x=352 then (352+a)/9=47 then 352+a=393 so we find a=41

If an image of a triangle is congruent to the pre-image, what is the scale factor of the dilation?
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

A dilation of .1 or 1/2 would decrease the size. Since the numbers are smaller than zero the triangles would no longer be congruent. A dilation of 10 would increase the size of the triangle, causing the triangles to no longer be congruent. A scale fact of one is equivalent to the same size because 1 does not increase or decrease the size.

What is 4x-2+x=-2+2x
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

x= no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-2+x=-2+2x

We first add 4x+x on the left side.

5x-2=2+2x

We then add 2 to both sides.

5x=2x

The answer is no solution because we got no answer out of the equation.

A private jet can fly 1,095 miles in 3 hours with a tailwind but only 987 miles in 3 hours into a headwind find the speed of the
Verizon [17]

Answer:

The speed of the jet is 347 mph and the  speed of the wind is 18 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following:

x = the speed of the jet in still air.

y = the speed of the wind

we know that the speed is equal to:

v = d / t

therefore the distance would be:

d = v * t

if we replace with the information of the exercise we have:

3 * (x + y) = 1095

3 * (x - y) = 987

we must solve this system of equations, add both equations and we are left:

3 * x + 3 * y = 1095

3 * x - 3 * y = 987

3 * x + 3 * y + 3 * x - 3 * y = 1095 + 987

6 * x = 2082

x = 2082/6 = 347

now to calculate y, we replace:

3 * (347 + y) = 1095

1041 + 3 * y = 1095

3 * y = 1095 - 1041

y = 54/3 = 18

The speed of the jet is 347 mph and the  speed of the wind is 18 mph.
