If sarah is 24 years younger than her mother and if the sum of their age is 68 how old is sarah

1 answer:

7 0

The sum of two numbers if just the numbers added together, so you would just need to do some simple algebra.

The ages added together are 68, and the opposite of addition is subtraction!

(total age) - (sarahs age) = (mothers age)
68 - 24 = 44

44 should be her mothers age!

(If you were trying to calculate the sum of their ages, you would just add them together, and 24 + 44 = 68)

Is it possible to build a triangle with inside angles of 90 degrees , 50 degrees, and 60 degrees?

N76 [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Angles of a triangle are equal to 90 degrees , 50 degrees, and 60 degrees

To check : if it possible to build a triangle with given angles

Solution:

According to angle sum property of a triangle, sum of angles of a triangle is equal to $180^{\circ}$

Here,

sum of given angles = $90^{\circ}+50^{\circ}+60^{\circ}=200^{\circ}\neq 180^{\circ}$

Therefore, it is not possible to construct a triangle with given angles.

Rewrite In simplest radical form x^5/6/x^1/6

Nady [450]

I assume you mean:

[x^(5/6)]/[x^(1/6)]

The rule for dividing similar bases with different exponents is:

(a^b)/(a^c)=a^(b-c)

In this case we have:

x^(5/6-1/6)

x^(4/6)

x^(2/3)

Can someone please help me??? a is 3/4 b is -8 c is -2 d is 3

Pavel [41]

Answer:

-b[a + (c-d)^2]

-(-8)[3/4 + (-2 -3)^2]

8 [3/4 + (-5)^2]

8 [3/4 + 25]

8 [25.75]
