Using equations to solve the word problem, Katherine's age is 8 years

<h3>Word Problem</h3>

Word problem are often mathematical problem that are represented in words and sometimes can be solved using an equation.

To solve this problem, we have to represent the problem using mathematical equations;

Let;

Katherine's age = x²

Alexandra = 5(x + 1)

Sum of their age = 109

5(x + 1) + x² = 109

5x + 5 + x² = 109

x² + 5x - 104 = 0

Solving for the equation; x = 8

Katherine's age is 8

Elenna [48]
Average rate of change is (f(8) - f(-6))/(8 - (-6)) = ((<span>|8 + 3| -1) - (</span><span>|-6 + 3| -1))/(8 + 6) = ((</span><span>|11| -1) - (</span><span>|-3| -1))/14 = ((11 - 1) - (3 - 1))/14 = (10 - 2)/14 = 8/14 = 4/7</span>

Find the least common multiple of 10 and 14.
aksik [14]
We can do this by just adding 14 to 14 until we get a number that is divisible by 10.  We can do it this way because it will be a small number.  Let's list them out.  14, 28, 42, 56, 70.  70 is divisible by 10, so 70 is the answer.
