Albert´s ftather age=x
Albert age=y

We suggest this system of equations:
y=x-24
x+8=2(y+8)

we solve this system of equation by substitution method.

x+8=2[(x-24)+8]
x+8=2(x-16)
x+8=2x-32
x-2x=-32-8
-x=-40
x=40

y=x-24
y=40-24
y=16

Answer: Albert´s father is 40 years old, and Albert is 16 years old.

Sin x = - 1/2<br> where (-360 &lt; x &lt; 360)
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

-30, 210 and 330 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression Sin x = - 1/2

x = arcsin(-1/2)

x = -30 degrees

Since sin is negative in the third and fourth quadrant

x = 180 + 30

x = 210 degrees

In the fourth quadrant

x = 360 - 30

x = 330

Hence the value of x within the interval -360 < x < 360 are -30, 210 and 330 degrees

Use the polynomial 3x^2−4x^11+4x^4−2x^10−5+^8x^8 to answer the question. 
Anit [1.1K]

Answer: 11

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

3x² - 4x¹¹ + 4x⁴ - 2x¹⁰ - 5 + 8x⁸

To find the degree, look for the largest exponent.  <em>11</em>

If you put this polynomial in standard form (from largest to smallest exponent), the first term will give you the degree of the polynomial and the leading coefficient.

- 4x¹¹ - 2x¹⁰ + 8x⁸ + 4x⁴ + 3x² - 5

*GEOMETRY*please help me find the surface area of the solid along with the volume of it step by step!
Serjik [45]

Surface area of the solid = 7.1781 in²

Volume of the solid = 0.804 in³

Explanation:

Surface area of the solid = surface area of the square prism - 2(base of the cylinder) + lateral surface of cylinder

surface area of a square prism = 2(lw + lh + wh)

l = length = 1 in

w = length = 1 in

h = height = 1 in

\begin{gathered} \text{Surface area = 2(1}\times1\text{ + 1}\times1\text{ + 1}\times1) \\ \text{Surface area = 2(1 + 1 + 1) = 2(3)} \\ \text{Surface area = 6 in }^2 \end{gathered}

using the value π as it is on the calculator

Base area of a cylinder = πr²

2(Base area of cylinder) = 2πr² = 2π(0.25)² = 0.3927

Lateral surface area = 2πrh = 2π(0.25)(1) = 1.5708

Surface area of the solid = 6 - 0.3927 + 1.5708

Surface area of the solid = 7.178 in²

Volume of the solid = Volume of the square prism - volume of the cylinder

Volume of square prism = length × width × height

length = 1 in, width = 1 in, height = 1 in

Volume of the solid = 1 in × 1 in × 1 in = 1 in³

Volume of a cylinder = πr²h

Volume of the cylinder = π × 0.25 × 0.25 × 1 = 0.196

Volume of the solid = 1 - 0.196

Volume of the solid = 0.804 in³
