Answer:

son's present age = 30

father's present age=60

Step-by-step explanation:

his son's present age = x years

his father's present age = 2x years

before 20 years his son's age=(x-20) years

before 20 years father's age=(2x-20) years4(x-20)=(2x-20)

4x-80=2x-20

4x-2x=80-20

2x=60

x=30

Jane is painting her room. She mixes 3 pints of blue paint with 4 pints of red paint to get her desired color. Which equation ca
Lady bird [3.3K]
Well if she added three blue and four red originally, and is now using 16 red then we would divide 16 by the original four. Which means to get the number of blue we are gonna end up multiplying by four. So three times four is twelve. Which means she would use 12 blue and 16 red to get the same color she got with 3 blue and 4 red earlier. The equation, lets use x for blue and y for red, would be 4(3x + 4y) = desired color

lesantik [10]

Answer: $2936.27

Step-by-step explanation:

Present value = $1663

Rate = 5.5%

Time(n) = 19years

Future value= PV(1+r)^n

= 1663(1+5.5%)^19

= 1663(1.055)^19

=1663 × 2.766

=4599.86

Interest = Future value - Present value

= $4599 - $1663

= 2936
