Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Emma's age be 2x years, then:
Elsa's age is x years, also:
Bella's age is x - 2 years.
In one years time the sum of their ages
= 2x + 1 + x + 1 + x - 2 + 1
= 4x + 1 where x = Elsa's age now.
5 years before now
Sum of their ages
= 2x -5 + x - 5 + x - 2 - 5
= 4x - 17 where x = Elsa's age now,
Answer:
32x^5-80x^4+80x^3+32x^2+10x-1
Let x be the unknown number of years.
Let C be Chris' age and J be Jenny's age.
Then J+x = 2(C+x)-7
... describes this situation.
4+x = 2(2+x) - 7
4+x = 4 + 2x - 7
x = 2x -7 becomes 7=x
In 7 years, Jenny will be 7 years younger than twice Chris' age.
Check: Is this true? 4+7 = 2(2+7)-7
11 = 18-7, or 11=11 TRUE
Answer:
I haven't done these in 2 years and I'm not sure if I remember things correctly but here's what I would put down.
5) No, it is not because the sizes of each section are not even.
6) Yes, this is fair since there are a even chance of getting each number.
7) 3 out of 25 or 3/25
8) The bag with 250 colored tiles would give him a less chance of picking a blue tile. In the first bag, there is a 40% chance that Greg would pick a blue tile while the second bag, he would have a 30% chance of picking a blue tile. To get these percentages, I divided the the amount of blue tiles in the bag by the total amount of tiles.
Explantion for question 8: 10 blue tiles in a bag of 25 so you would do 10/25 which is .4 and as a percentage it would be 40%. For the second question, 75 blue tiles out of 250 total so 75/250 and that would be .3 and as a percentage, it would be 30%. The "/" is a fraction bar and is sometimes used as a division symbol as well, just in case you don't know:)
