Let,
Harry's age - x then Nick is 7x.
After 6 years, Harry is x+6 and Nick is 7x+6
So, 7x+6= 5(x+6)=> 2x = 30-6X = 12
In 6 years, Harry will be 12+6 = 18 years (Ans)

EleoNora [17]

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 : Simplify the equation

3x - 15 + 7x = 65

Step 2 : Make x the subject

3x + 7x = 65 + 15

10x = 80

x = 80/10

x = 8

An insurance company selected a random sample of 500 clients under 18 years of age and found that 180 of them had had an acciden

adoni [48]

Answer: The accident proportion differ between the two age groups is 0.11.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of clients under 18 years of age = 500

Number of clients had had an accident = 180

Proportion of client had an accident = $\dfrac{180}{500}=\dfrac{18}{50}$

Number of clients aged 18 and older = 600

Number of clients had had an accident = 150

Proportion of client had an accident = $\dfrac{150}{600}=\dfrac{15}{60}$

So, According to question, we get that

Difference between the two age groups proportions would be :

$\dfrac{18}{50}-\dfrac{15}{60}\\\\=\dfrac{108-75}{300}\\\\=\dfrac{33}{300}\\\\=\dfrac{11}{100}$

Hence, the accident proportion differ between the two age groups is 0.11.
