Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the x be the number of hours after noon.
<u>We have the following equation:</u>
- 14.83 + 0.12(x + 3) = 15.33 - 0.15x
- 14.83 + 0.12x + 0.36 = 15.33 - 0.15x
- 0.12x + 0.15x = 15.33 - 15.19
- 0.27x = 0.14
- x = 0.14/0.27
- x ≈ 0.5
The answer would be, correct me if I'm wrong, Geoff is 11 and Warden is 26...
I got this because if he's twice the age and he's 15 years older then he would be twice of 15 or 30, making Geoff 15 and Warden 30, subtract the 4 years from both and you get 11 and 16
Answer:
499/999
Step-by-step explanation:
The decimal number written is:
0.499...
Such that these 3 decimals are repeated as:
0.499499499...
Let's define this number as k
k = 0.499...
Let's multiply this number by 1000 (the same number of zeros as important decimals after the decimal point)
we get:
1000*k = (1000)*(0.499...) = 499.499...
Now we can subtract the original number k, so we get:
1000*k - k = 499.499... - 0.499...
In this way, we remove the part after the decimal point:
1000*k - k = 499.499... - 0.499...
(1000 - 1)*k = 499
999*k = 499
Now we can divide both sides by 999
(999*k)/999 = 499/999
k = 499/999
The fraction notation of our number is 499/999 (and this is the simplest form)
In decimal form: 42.0 ( hope I helped! )
