Answer:Mark Is 9 years old; Christine is 5 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Present age
LET mark age be x
Christine be x-4 yrs
In 3 yrs Time
Mark will be x+3 yrs old
Christine will be (x -4 +3) = x-1 years old
Also, In 3 years time
Christine = 2/3 Mark
such that
x-1 = 2/3(x+3)
x -1= 2x+6 / 3
3x -3= 2x+6
3X--2X = 6+3
=X=9
Mark Is 9 years old
Christine is x -4 = 9-4=5 years old

Step-by-step explanation:
There are no values of b
that make the equation true.
No solution
First, we need to add 2/6 and 2/5.
2/6 can be simplified to 1/3
We need to have 1/3 and 2/5 have the same denominator. 3 and 5's LCM (least common multiply) is 15.
Multiply both the numerator and denominator of 1/3 by 5. This equals 5/15.
Multiply both the numerator and denominator of 2/5 by 3. This equals 6/15.
5/15 plus 6/15 is 11/15. This means that Jack's 6000 dollars is 4/15.
Let's say that x is the total amount invested by all three.
6000/x would equal 4/15.
Solve this by multiply 6000 by 15 and 4 by x and making these two equal each other.
90000 would equal 4x. Divide both sides by 4 to get x.
90000 divided by 4 would be 22500.
4/15 is the fraction by Jack
22500 is the total amount invested by all 3
Focus on triangles DFC and DFE:
- They are both right triangles because DF is perpendicular to EC
- DC=DE
- DF is a common side
So, the two triangles are congruent. It follows that CF=FE, and in particular
And since x=3, the length of EF is
