Step-by-step explanation:
let father's age be f yr old and son age be s yr old
f = 5s -(1)
f + s = 60 -(2)
sub (1) into (2):
5s + s = 60
6s = 60
s = 10
f = 60 - 10 = 50
in 5 yr time, father age = 50 + 5 = 55
son age = 10 + 5 = 15
Answer:
L(1-0.15)
L-(15/100)L
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
100%-15%=85%
85%=85/100=0.85
so
The number of hours that Mateo spent at the beach last week is equal to the hours that landen spent at the beach (L) multiplied by 0.85
The linear equation that represent this situation is
0.85L
<u><em>Equivalent expressions are</em></u>
1) L(1-0.15)
Because
Applying distributive property
L(1-0.15)=L-0.15L
Combine like terms
L-0.15L=0.85L
2) L-(15/100)L
because
15/100=0.15
substitute
L-(15/100)L=L-(0.15)L=0.85L
B) 23
Add what you know together, 6 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 3.5. Fill in what you don’t by looking at other sides. 3.5 + 2 + 2.
The difference (the answer of a subtraction problem) is:
2/7 - 2/5 --> 10/35 - 14/35 = -4/35
The answer sum (the answer of an addition problem) is:
2/7 + 2/5 --> 10/35 + 14/35 = 24/35
Hope this helps.
