If the man's age was 6 times as old as his daughter and will be twice after 18 years then the present age of daughter is 7 and her father is 32.

Given that age of a man was 6 times as old as his daughter and in 18 years, he will be twice as old as his daughter.

We are required to find the present ages of both daughter and her father.

Let the age of daughter before 2 years be x.

The equations are as under:

In this way the father's age was 6x.

Present age of daughter be x+2,

Present age of her father be 6x+2.

After 18 years the age of daughter be x+2+18=x+20

After 18 years the age of her father be 6x+2+18=6x+20

It is also given that the age of her father will be 2 times the age of the daughter. So, 2(x+20)=6x+20.

2x+40=6x+20

40-20=6x-2x

20=4x

x=5

Present age of daughter=5+2=7 years.

Present age of her father=6*5+2=30+2=32 years.

Hence if the man's age was 6 times as old as his daughter and will be twice after 18 years then the present age of daughter is 7 and her father is 32.

An aquifer holds 146,000 cubic feet of water. Water exits through a well at a steady rate of 500 cubic feet per day, and the aqu
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

The value of x = 100  ft^3/ day

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to look at what amount of water comes in and what amount of water leaves

What comes in:  x ft^3/ day

What leaves : 500x ft^3/ day

We start with 146 000 ft^3

Water in tank = what we start with + what comes in - what leaves

water in tank = 146000 + x*d - 500*d  where d is the number of days

After 365 days , the tank has 0 ft^3 of water

0  = 146000 + x*365 - 500*365

Multiply

0 = 146000 + 365x - 182500

Combine like terms

0 = -36500+365x

Add 36500 to each side

36500 = 36500-36500+365x

36500 = 365x

Divide by 365

36500/365 = 365x/365

100=x

The value of x = 100
