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)

Answer:

7 is the answer. If a number can be divided by 36 then it can also be divided by 12 which is 3*12 therefor the remainder will be 19-12 which is 7. When 19 is divided by 36, the remainder is 19 and so 19 must be a number. When 19 is divided by 12 the remainder is 7.

Solve the seperable equation:<br> dx/dt=3xt^2

andrew-mc [135]

$\displaystyle
\dfrac{dx}{dt}=3xt^2\\
\dfrac{dx}{x}=3t^2 \, dt\\
\int \dfrac{dx}{x}=\int 3t^2 \, dt\\
\ln x=3\dfrac{t^3}{3}+C\\
\ln x=t^3+C\\
x=e^{t^3+C}\\
x=e^{t^3}\cdot e^C\\
\boxed{x=Ce^{t^3}}$
