Answer:

Ashleys age is 28.

Step-by-step explanation:

When finding numbers that are consecutive, I like to divide the sum in this case, 100 by the number of people or things, in this case, the 4 siblings. The sum is 100 and there are 4 of them so we divide them first.

100÷4=25 so our answer must be around there. The question states that the ages must be even. So the even numbers in the range of lets say 20-30 are 20, 22, 24, 26, 28 and 30. Closest four numbers to 25 are 22, 24, 26 and 28. We must have two numbers below 25 and two numbers above 25.  So we will keep 22,24,26 and 28. If you add them together, then you'll get 100! Since we are looking for Ashley's age which is the oldest, her age will be 28 as 28 is the highest number out the four numbers (22,24,26,28)

Good Luck and hope this helped! <33

Well this one is very simple. It seems to give 1 lb per 4 dollars spent. So, the best way to state this mathematically is x=4y or x=4×y.

What is the locus of centers of all circles passing through point A and Point B, which are two fixed points in a plane.
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

  the locus is the perpendicular bisector of the segment

Step-by-step explanation:

The points equidistant from A and B lie on the line that is the perpendicular bisector of segment AB.

_____

<em>Comment on this geometry</em>

You take advantage of this fact when you construct a circle through 3 points. You construct the perpendicular bisectors of segments between pairs of the points, and locate the center of your circle at their intersection.
