<span>The correct answer is: 21

Explanation:
Let's first assume few variables!

x = Ishann's age (in years)
y = Christopher's age (in years)

1. Ishann is 3 times as old as Christopher can be represented mathematically as:
x = 3y ---- (1)

2. Ishann is 14 years older than Christopher can be represented mathematically as:
x = y + 14 ---- (2)

Get the value of y from Equation (1) and plug it in Equation (2):

(2) => x = (x/3) + 14
3x = x + 42
2x = 42
x = 21

Hence Ishann is 21 years old!</span>

Answer:

{x = 1 , y=1, z=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{-2 x + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)

{-2 x - y + z = -3 | (equation 2)

{2 x + 3 y + 3 z = 5 | (equation 3)

Subtract equation 1 from equation 2:

{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)

{0 x - 3 y - 2 z = -3 | (equation 2)

{2 x + 3 y + 3 z = 5 | (equation 3)

Multiply equation 2 by -1:

{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)

{0 x+3 y + 2 z = 3 | (equation 2)

{2 x + 3 y + 3 z = 5 | (equation 3)

Add equation 1 to equation 3:

{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)

{0 x+3 y + 2 z = 3 | (equation 2)

{0 x+5 y + 6 z = 5 | (equation 3)

Swap equation 2 with equation 3:

{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)

{0 x+5 y + 6 z = 5 | (equation 2)

{0 x+3 y + 2 z = 3 | (equation 3)

Subtract 3/5 × (equation 2) from equation 3:

{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)

{0 x+5 y + 6 z = 5 | (equation 2)

{0 x+0 y - (8 z)/5 = 0 | (equation 3)

Multiply equation 3 by 5/8:

{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)

{0 x+5 y + 6 z = 5 | (equation 2)

{0 x+0 y - z = 0 | (equation 3)

Multiply equation 3 by -1:

{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)

{0 x+5 y + 6 z = 5 | (equation 2)

{0 x+0 y+z = 0 | (equation 3)

Subtract 6 × (equation 3) from equation 2:

{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)

{0 x+5 y+0 z = 5 | (equation 2)

{0 x+0 y+z = 0 | (equation 3)

Divide equation 2 by 5:

{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)

{0 x+y+0 z = 1 | (equation 2)

{0 x+0 y+z = 0 | (equation 3)

Subtract 2 × (equation 2) from equation 1:

{-(2 x) + 0 y+3 z = -2 | (equation 1)

{0 x+y+0 z = 1 | (equation 2)

{0 x+0 y+z = 0 | (equation 3)

Subtract 3 × (equation 3) from equation 1:

{-(2 x)+0 y+0 z = -2 | (equation 1)

{0 x+y+0 z = 1 | (equation 2)

{0 x+0 y+z = 0 | (equation 3)

Divide equation 1 by -2:

{x+0 y+0 z = 1 | (equation 1)

{0 x+y+0 z = 1 | (equation 2)

{0 x+0 y+z = 0 | (equation 3)

Write the direct variation function given that y varies directly with x, and y = 1.5 when x = 5.
Cloud [144]

Answer:

y=0.3x

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula = K=\frac{y}{x}

y α x

y = kx

Where k is the constant of proportionality.

When y = 1.5; x = 5;

We substitute these known values in the equation,

y = kx

1.5 = k5

Dividing both sides of the equation by 5 to find the value for k, we have

1.5/5= k0.3/5

Therefore,

K = 0.3

Having found the value of k,

We substitute this value into the relationship

y = kx

Therefore we have,

y = 0.3x.

The direct variation function is therefore,

y = 0.3x.

Help pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
bixtya [17]

Answer:  \bold{(1)\ \dfrac{19,683}{64}\qquad (2)\ 16}

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

(1)           (12, 18, 27, ...)

The common ratio is:

r=\dfrac{a_{n+1}}{a_n}\quad r =\dfrac{18}{12}=\boxed{\dfrac{3}{2}}\quad \rightarrow \quad r=\dfrac{27}{18}=\boxed{\dfrac{3}{2}}

The equation is:

a_n=a_o(r)^{n-1}\\\\Given:a_o=12,\  r=\dfrac{3}{2}\\\\\\Equation:\\a_n =12\bigg(\dfrac{3}{2}\bigg)^{n-1}\\\\\\\\9th\ term:\\a_9=12\bigg(\dfrac{3}{2}\bigg)^{9-1}\\\\\\a_9=12\bigg(\dfrac{3}{2}\bigg)^{8}\\\\\\.\quad =\large\boxed{\dfrac{19643}{64}}

(2)\qquad \bigg(\dfrac{1}{16},\dfrac{1}{8},\dfrac{1}{4},\dfrac{1}{2}\bigg)\\\\\\\text{The common ratio is}:\\\\r=\dfrac{a_{n+1}}{a_n}\quad  r=\dfrac{\frac{1}{8}}{\frac{1}{16}}=\boxed{2}\quad \rightarrow \quad r=\dfrac{\frac{1}{4}}{\frac{1}{8}}=\boxed{2}

The equation is:

a_n=a_o(r)^{n-1}\\\\Given:a_o=\dfrac{1}{16},\  r=2\\\\\\Equation:\\a_n =\dfrac{1}{16}(2)^{n-1}\\\\\\\\9th\ term:\\a_9=\dfrac{1}{16}(2)^{9-1}\\\\\\a_9=\dfrac{1}{16}(2)^{8}\\\\\\.\quad =\large\boxed{16}
