Let
Present age of Sana = s
Present age of Mona = m
Sana is senior to Mona by 18 years
s=m+18............(1)
After 6 years
Sana will be = s+6
Mona will be = m+6
Then
Sana will be twice as old as Mona
(s+6)=2(m+6)
s+6=2m+12
s=2m+12-6
s=2m+6.............(2)
Put the value of s from (2) to (1)
2m+6=m+18
2m-m=18-6
m=12
Put the value of m in (1)
s=m+18
s=12+18
s=30
Present age of Sana = s = 30 years old
Present age of Mona = m = 12 years old
To solve this problem you must apply a theorem called: Intersecting secant theorem. The proccedure is shown below:
1) For the figure shown on the left:
(5)(x+5)=(6)(4+6)
5x+25=60
5x=60-25
x=35/5
x=7
2) For the figure shown on the right:
(3)(3+5)=(4)(x+4)
24=4x+16
24-16=4x
8=4x
8/4=x
x=2
Answer:
3648 pieces of candy.
Step-by-step explanation:
Mr. Fox purchased 76 bags of candy.
Each bag contains 48 pieces of candy.
Multiply the two numbers together:
76 x 48 = 3648
