Answer: 13

Step-by-step explanation:

let m = Matt's age

let a = Andy's

:

Write an equation for each statement

:

Matt is four years younger than twice his cousin Andy’s age.

m = 2a - 4

The sum of their ages is greater than 35.

m + a > 35

What is the youngest age that Andy can be?

replace m with (2a-4) from the 1st statement

2a - 4 + a > 35

3a > 35 + 4

a > 39/3

a > 13

least integer has to be a = 14

:

:

Check, find m

m = 2(14) - 4

m = 24

24 + 14 = 38 greater than 35

If a = 13

m = 2(13) - 4

m = 22

22 + 13 = 35 which is not greater than 35

The side of a square measures (3x − 6) units. Part A: What is the expression that represents the area of the square? Show your w
liubo4ka [24]

A. The area of a square is given as:

A = s^2

Where s is a measure of a side of a square. s = (2 x – 5) therefore,

A = (2 x – 5)^2                  

Expanding,

A = 4 x^2 – 20 x + 25

 

B. The degree of a polynomial is the highest exponent of the variable x, in this case 2. Therefore the expression obtained in part A is of 2nd degree.

Furthermore, polynomials are classified according to the number of terms in the expression. There are 3 terms in the expression therefore it is classified as a trinomial.

 

<span>C. The closure property demonstrates that during multiplication or division, the coefficients and power of the variables are affected while during multiplication or division, only the coefficients are affected while the power remain the same.</span>
