The correct answer is :

( 7s - 2 ) +3+ ( s + 3 ) = 52 , or 8s + 4 = 52 .

<h3>Explanation : </h3>

Since s is the son's age , " two less than seven times " the son's age would be represented by 7s - 2 .

To represent this in 3 years , we would add 3 : ( 7s - 2 ) +3 .

In 3 years , the son's age , s , would be represented by s + 3 . We are told that the sum of these ages will be 52 ; this gives us ( 7s - 2 ) +3+ ( s + 3 ) = 52 .

To simplify this , combine like terms .

7s + s = 8s ; -2 + 3 + 3 = 4 .

This gives us 8s + 4 = 52 .

Answer:

First,

the age of the son: s

the age of the father is 2 less than 7 times the age of his son: 7s - 2

In 3 years, the sum of their ages will be 52, In 3 years, the age of the sun will

increase 3, so s+3. Also, the age of his

father also increase 3, (7s-2)+3

(s+3)+ [(7s-2)+3] = 52 is the equation.

Hey there :)

We know the formula for simple interest is 
I = prt
{ The picture includes what each stands for }

Lehena:
Initial amount = $100
Interest rate = 2.5% = \frac{2.5}{100} = 0.025
Time = 3 years
I = ( 100 )( 0.025 )( 3 )
  = 7.5$

Total = $100 + $7.5 = $107.5

Marty:
Initial amount = $100
Interest rate = 2% = \frac{2}{100} = 0.02
Time = 3 years
I = ( 100 )( 0.02 )( 3 ) 
  = $6

Total = $100 + $6 = $106

How much more than Marty did Lehena receive?
= Total Amount of Lehena - Total Amount of Marty
= 107.5 - 106
= $1.5

Your answer will be option B) $1.50

Sarah is making a wall hanging in the shape shown below.
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the wall hanging shown in blue is the area of the square 8 by 8 minus the area of the cutout. Notice the cutout is a triangle? To find the total area, subtract the area of the triangle from the square.

The square has the sides 8 by 8 and its area is found as A = 8*8 = 64.

The triangle measures 4 inches by 4 inches. The area is found as A = 1/2*4*4 = 8.

Subtract the two areas.

64 - 8 = 56

Type the correct answer in the box. Use numerals instead of words. If necessary, use / for the fraction bar.
sashaice [31]

Answer:

k = –10

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

f(x) = x³ – 6x² – 11x + k

Factor => x + 2

Value of K =?

Next, we shall obtained the value of x from x + 2. This is illustrated below:

x + 2 = 0

Collect like terms

x = 0 – 2

x = –2

Finally, we shall determine the value of k as illustrated below:

f(x) = x³ – 6x² – 11x + k

x = –2

Thus,

f(–2) = 0

x³ – 6x² – 11x + k = 0

(–2)³ – (–2)² – 11(–2) + k = 0

–8 – (4) + 22 + K = 0

–8 – 4 + 22 + K = 0

10 + k = 0

Collect like terms

k = 0 – 10

k = –10

Thus, the value of k is –10
