Answer:

11 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the age of Julio is x.

Age of Julio's father = 4 x

According to the question, the sum of their ages is not less than 55.

x + 4x > 55

5 x > 55

x > 11

Thus, the youngest age of Julio is 11 years.

Hello! :)

$\large\boxed{\text{70 seconds}}$

Use a proportion to find how many seconds are needed to fold 5 shirts.

We are given that he takes 28 seconds to fold 2 shirts:

28 sec : 2 shirts

We are not given the amount of time needed for 5 shirts, which we need to solve:

x seconds : 5 shirts

Express in a fraction:

$\frac{2 shirts}{28 seconds} = \frac{5 shirts}{xseconds}$

Cross multiply and simplify:

$2 * x = 5 * 28\\\\2x = 140\\\\x = 70 sec$

Therefore, he needs 70 seconds to fold 5 shirts.

Prices:

Year 1 =old price =$95

The inflation rate is the difference in price between two Given period :

Inflation rate :

(Change in price / old price) * 100%

((New price - old price) / old price) * 100%

((96.25 - 95) / 96) * 100%

= (1.25 / 95) * 100%

= 0.0131578 * 100%

= 1.315%

Find a common difference of the arithmetic sequence -2, -1 4/5, -1 3/5, -1 2/5,

elixir [45]

Answer:

The common difference is $\frac{1}{5}$ or 0.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Arithmetic Sequence -2, -1 4/5, -1 3/5, -1 2/5,

First term = a₁ = -2

Second term = a₂ = $\frac{-9}{5}$

Third term = a₃ = $\frac{-8}{5}$

Fourth term = a₄ = $\frac{-7}{5}$

To Find:

Common Difference = d = ?

Solution:

Formula for Common Difference d , $\textrm{common difference}= \textrm{Second Term} -\textrm{First Term}=\textrm{Third Term}-\textrm{Second Term}$

$\textrm{common difference} = a_{2}- a_{1}= a_{3}- a_{2}=a_{4}- a_{3}$

∴ $d = \frac{-9}{5}-(-2)\\d=\frac{-9}{5}+2\\d=\frac{1}{5}\\ \therefore d =0.2\\$

The common difference is $\frac{1}{5}$ or 0.2
