Answer:

46 and 22

Step-by-step explanation:

let the father b (f) and d son is (s)

so

f=3s.....(1)

(f+10) +(s+10)=68 .... (2)

substitute f=3s in equation (2)

we have

(3s+10)+(s+10)=68

4s+20=68

4s=68-20

4s=48

s=12 .......(3)

substitute (3) in (1)

f=3*12

which f=36

in 10 year time

f+10 =46

s+10=22

Which table shows no correlation?
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Similarly,

6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 = 6 × 7 = 42

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

The way a proportion is set is as follows;

\dfrac{1 \ inch}{200 \ miles } = \dfrac{4 \ inches}{ Distance \ from \ Rio \ de \ Janeiro \ to \ San \ Jose}

The Distance from Rio de Janeiro and San Jose Costa Rica is then found as  800 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The dimension of the distance between Rio de Janeiro and San Jose Costa Rica = 4 inches

The map scale = 1 inch to 200 miles

To figure out how many miles it is or the actual distance from Rio de Janeiro and San Jose Costa Rica, we have;

\dfrac{1 \ inch}{200 \ miles } = \dfrac{4 \ inches}{ Distance \ from \ Rio \ de \ Janeiro \ to \ San \ Jose}

Therefore, we have;

(4 inches × 200 miles)/(1 inche) = Distance from Rio de Janeiro and San Jose Costa Rica

Which gives;

Distance from Rio de Janeiro and San Jose Costa Rica = 800 miles.
