charity is four times as old as her daughter. she is also six years younger than her husband. The sum of their ages ten years to

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

36years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let charity present age be x

Charity daughter present age be y

Charity husband present age be z

If the sum of their ages ten years to come is 117, then;

10+x+10+y+10+z = 117

30+x+y+z = 117

x+y+z = 87 ... 1

If charity is four times as old as her daughter, then;

x = 4y

y = x/4 ... 2

If she is also six years younger than her husband, then;

x = z- 6

z = x+6 .. 3

Substitute 2 and 3 into 1;

x + x/4 + (x+6) = 87

Multiply through by 4

4x + x + 4(x+6) = 4(87)

5x+4x+24 = 348

9x = 348 - 24

9x = 324

x = 324/9

x = 36

hence Charity is 36years old today

Kyle held a balloon 8 feet off the ground, straight above his head. Ava is standing 15 feet directly to the right of Kyle.

Mazyrski [523]

Complete Question:

Kyle held a balloon 8 feet off the ground, straight above his head. Ava is standing 15 feet directly to the right of Kyle.

Write an equation using the Pythagorean Theorem to find the value of x.

How far are Ava's feet from the balloon?

Answer:

Ava's feet is 17ft away from the balloon

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$height = 8ft$

$distance = 15ft$

The attached image represents the scenario

Using Pythagoras theorem (from the attachment), we have:

$x^2 = 8^2 + 15^2$

$x^2 = 64 + 225$

$x^2 =289$

Take square roots of both sides

$x = \sqrt{289$

$x = 17$

Please help me to find the answer Y=2X 3X+4Y=22 Y=2X 3X+4Y=22

RSB [31]

<h3>System of equations.</h3>

$\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}y=2x&(1)\\3x+4y=22&(2)\end{array}\right$

Put (1) to (2):

$3x+4(2x)=22\\3x+8x=22\\11x=22\qquad|\text{divide both sides by 11}\\\boxed{x=2}$

Substitute the value of x to (1):

$y=2\cdot2\\\boxed{y=4}$

Solution:

$\huge\boxed{\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x=2\\y=4\end{array}\right}$
