Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Gabrielle's age be x.

The age of the milk will be x - 15.

x + (x - 15) = 103.

2x - 15 = 103

2x = 118

x = 59

The milk's age = x - 15 = 59 - 15 = 44.

Answer:

Mikhail is 44 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Set both Gabrielle and Mikhail's age to a variable.

Gabrielle is x, Mikhail is also x.

Now create an equation using the variables with the sum.

Age1 + Age2 + 15 = 103

x + x + 15 = 103

Now we solve.

1. Combine like terms

2x + 15 = 103

2. Make all the numbers on one side of the equation, and the variables of the other, so subtract.

2x + 15 - 15 = 103 - 15

2x = 88

3. Simplify further by dividing.

x = 44

<u>Mikhail is 44 years old.</u>

Check your work:

44 + (x + 15) = 103

x + 15 = 59

x = 44

The expression p/x^2 - 5x +6 simplifies to x+4/x-2. Which expression doees p represent?

gladu [14]

We know that
(ad)/(bd)=d/d time a/b=a/b since d's cancel
also
if a/b=c/d in simplest form, then a=c and b=d

we have
p/(x^2-5x+6)=(x+4)/(x-2)
therefor

p/(x^2-5x+6)=d/d times (x+4)/(x-2)
p/(x^2-5x+6)=d(x+4)/d(x-2)

therefor
p=d(x+4) and
x^2-5x+6=d(x-2)

we can solve last one
factor
(x-6)(x+1)=d(x-2)
divide both sides by (x-2)
[(x-6)(x+1)]/(x-2)=d
sub

p=d(x+4)
p=([(x-6)(x+1)]/(x-2))(x+4)
$p= \frac {(x-6)(x+1)(x+4)}{(x-2)}$

How many triangles can be formed with segments measuring 34 cm, 13 cm, and 38 cm? Select from the drop-down menu to correctly co

Lilit [14]

The triangle inequality theorem is not followed, no triangle can be formed.

Triangles

In Geometry, a triangle is a three-sided polygon that consists of three edges and three vertices.

The triangle inequality theorem describes the relationship between the three sides of a triangle.

According to the triangle inequality theorem, the sum of any two sides must be greater or equal than the length of the third side.

Here, the sides are 34 cm, 13 cm, and 38 cm.

34cm + 13 cm = 47 cm > 38cm (theorem followed)

34 cm + 38 cm = 72 cm > 13 cm (theorem followed)
