Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

x = Edith's age = 20 years

y = Ronald's age

x = 20 = y/4

y = 20×4 = 80 years

in z years we have

(x + z) = (y + z)/3

(20 + z) = (80 + z)/3

3(20 + z) = 80 + z

60 + 3z = 80 + z

60 + 2z = 80

2z = 20

z = 10

in 10 years Edith's age will be 1/3 of Ronald's age.

then Edith will be 30, and Ronald will be 90.

30 = 90/3

correct.

Answer:

-0.9090... can be written as \frac{10}{11}.

Explanation:

Any <em>repeating </em>decimal can be written as a fraction by dividing the section of the pattern to be repeated <em>by </em>9's.

We can start by listing out

0.909090... = 9/10 + 0/100 + 9/1000 + 0/10000 + 9/100000 + 0/1000000 + ...

Now. we let this series be equal to x, that is

x = 9/10 + 0/100 + 9/1000 + 0/10000 + 9/100000 + 0/1000000 + ...

Now, we'll multiply both sides by 100 .

100x = 90 + 0 + 9/10 + 0/100 + 9/1000 + 0/10000 + ...

Then, subtract the 1st equation from the second like so:

100x = 90 + 0 + 9/10 + 0/100 + 9/1000 + 0/10000 + 9/100000 + 0/1000000 + ...

-x = - 9/10 - 0/100 - 9/1000 - 0/10000 - 9/100000 - 0/1000000 - ...

And we end up with this:

99x=90

Finally, we divide both sides by 99 in order to isolate x and get the fraction we're looking for.

x=\frac{90}{99}

Which can be reduced and simplified to

x=\frac{10}{11}

Hope this helps!

Answer:

D) y= 4x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We are basically trying to see which of the equations provided are true on both sides of the equal sign when you plug in the x and y values.

Let's start!

Choice A:

  plug in 0 for x and -1 for y

-1 = 4(0)

And you are left with...

-1 = 0

This equation is false! Therefore it does not match the function in the table

Choice B:

   plug in the values again

-1 = 0 + 1

-1 = 1

False!

Choice C:

-1 = 0 + 5

-1 = 5

False!

Lastly...Choice D:

-1 = 4(0) -1

Multiply 4 and 0 which is 0, so you are left with...

-1 = -1

This equation is true!!

So your answer is D

Hope this helps :D
